Treatment of insect bites folk remedies

Blood-sucking insects attack warm-blooded animals and humans, because they need hemoglobin to continue offspring. Bees, wasps and hornets attack in order to protect themselves and their home. Often, a person tolerates insect bites normally, but in the presence of an allergy (especially in children), acute reactions in the form of a rash, swelling and itching are possible.

Mosquito bites

The summer months, except for hot days, are “famous” for the night activity of mosquitoes - the most greedy blood-sucking insects. And if males have enough plant juice in their habitat, then females sometimes overcome up to 60 km in search of prey.

The largest mosquito populations are represented in regions with high average daily temperature and humidity (tropics, subtropics). In such areas there are very dangerous species that not only drink blood, but also carry a variety of infections.

People living in temperate climates are more fortunate. Although not enough to feel completely safe. Even the air of the northern latitudes with the onset of heat is filled with clouds of bugs constantly buzzing overhead, insects from which it is not always possible.

Symptoms. A person usually learns about a mosquito bite after the fact. The insect is practically silent, except with a squeak, sits on the body, pierces the skin with a proboscis, sucks the right amount of blood and flies away (of course, if the timely wave of the victim’s hand does not interrupt the “meal”).

But even a slight injection is enough to penetrate the poison, causing itching, redness and swelling. If a person suffers from allergies, then an acute inflammatory reaction is quite possible:

Sometimes a person has nervous and intestinal disorders, and in rare cases, even anaphylactic shock. In turn, infection of the wound with pathogenic bacteria can provoke suppuration.

First aid. What is the first aid for allergic reactions to bites? With pronounced symptoms, an ambulance should be called immediately. And while doctors are on the way, you can take the following actions:

1. Wash the bite area with cold running water and soap.
2. Treat with anti-inflammatory agent (hydrogen peroxide, etc.).
3. Do not scratch the wound in the affected area!
4. Prevent an increase in edema by applying ice to the bite site.
5. Use an antihistamine ointment (e.g., Fenistil).
6. Take antihistamines (Suprastin, etc.).

In most cases, after completing the first three points, a person forgets about the bite after 20 minutes. Not even every child will have a rash and swelling! If an allergy sufferer was attacked by a mosquito, then you can not do without special tools and medical help.

Drug collection. The anti-inflammatory properties of mint leaves, oak bark and St. John's wort grass have long been known. To prepare the broth, the ingredients are dried and ground, mixed in equal proportions. The recipe itself is as follows:

Soda. Baking soda is used both in cooking and to eliminate the effects of mosquito attacks:

• 1 teaspoon of soda is poured with 1 cup of warm water.
• Stir thoroughly.
• Moisten gauze and apply to the bite site.

Alcohol. Another way is to burn the wound with alcohol. For this, medical alcohol (sold in each pharmacy), diluted with water in a ratio of 1: 5, is suitable, but you can use ordinary vodka and cologne.

Such a remedy will not help every person, although in most cases the itching will disappear. And if you do not scratch the place of the bite, then soon there will be no trace of it.

Midge bites

If the mosquito is easy to notice, then the midge is so small that its attack sometimes becomes a complete surprise. This is the case for a single representative.

Symptoms. When bitten, midges emit a strong toxin. In addition, insect saliva contains a natural analgesic. It is he who allows the pest to go unnoticed during the suction of blood.

After a bite, a person develops a fairly large swelling and severe itching, which again and again makes scratching the site of the lesion. If the midge attacked an allergic person, then a local and systemic response of the body is possible:

1. redness and skin rash;
2. prolonged and severe itching;
3. swelling (sometimes affecting large areas);
4. temperature increase up to 39 ° C;
5. heart palpitations;
6. lowering or increasing blood pressure;
7. swollen lymph nodes;
8. anaphylactic shock.

First aid. With a systemic allergic reaction, you must consult a doctor without fail. First aid from mosquito and midge bites is almost identical, with the exception of some differences:

Treatment. Most often, after a midge bite, itching and swelling are a concern. You can deal with them by simple means, although this will take some time.

Veronica officinalis. In principle, remedies for mosquito bites are recommended for mosquito bites. But alternative medicines act individually for each person: one will be helped right away, the other - the next day, and the third will not notice the changes at all.

An excellent plant for relieving inflammation, itching and allergies is considered Veronica officinalis. Prepare it as follows:

• Dry and grind the leaves.
• 1 tablespoon of raw material is poured with 1 glass of boiling water.
• Cook for 20 minutes over low heat.
• Cool and filter.
• Apply to the skin in 2 ways:
  • wipe the bite every hour;
  • apply a compress every 2 hours, wrap it with polyethylene and bandage it.

The tool helps against bites of both insects and other arthropods.

Bites of bees, wasps and hornets

Bees are actively used in medicine. Their poison helps with diseases of the joints and blood, improves immunity and increases the overall tone of the body, stabilizes the central nervous system. But it is in small doses. And in large doses, poison can kill a person: bites of 500 bees lead to death. If an allergy sufferer is attacked, then sometimes 2-3 bites are enough for him.

Wasps and hornets do not leave a sting in the sacrifice, because it is smooth. In addition, this feature allows these insects to attack repeatedly. In turn, the bees die after a bite: their sting has notches and remains in the body of the victim, which is akin to the loss of an important organ.

Symptoms. Hymenoptera insects are much more toxic than mosquitoes and midges. The reaction to an attack by a bee, wasp or hornet is expressed differently.

With one or two bites in a person, the affected area is very swollen and redder, and acute pain syndrome also occurs. With multiple - general intoxication of the body is possible, which is expressed in the following symptoms:

If the concentration of toxins in the blood exceeds the permissible norm, then a person dies from suffocation (bees, wasps, hornets) or cardiac arrest (wasps, hornets).

In allergy sufferers, in addition to the voiced symptoms, itching and rash on the skin, Quincke's edema often appear, and occasionally anaphylactic shock, which can also lead to death, causing spasm of the heart muscle and bronchi.

First aid. After a mass attack of hymenopteran insects, it is necessary to call a team of doctors, and if a person previously suffered from any allergies, then this must be done without fail. Pressing or rubbing the bite site is not recommended, since such an effect will contribute to the spread of poison.

In addition, you should not kill a stinging insect - its brethren will flock to the smell, which is fraught with an additional attack. The bee herself will die, but you should try to protect yourself from wasps and hornets - for example, hide in the house.

And in no case should you drink alcohol, even if it seems that such anesthesia is required. Ethanol will only contribute to the spread of poison. First aid for a bite of a bee, wasp and hornet is in such activities.

Extract poison from under the skin. To do this, apply gauze soaked in a solution of soda (1 teaspoon per 1 glass of water) to the place of the bite, or a piece of wet sugar.

Neutralize the poison that remains in the wound. After a bite, the bees wash the affected area with soap, wasps and hornets with table vinegar diluted with water in equal proportions.

Disinfect the wound with hydrogen peroxide or other antiseptic.
Cool the site of the bite with ice to suppress the development of edema. Antiallergic drugs are used. The same antihistamine ointments and tablets are suitable, as with mosquito bites.

Treatment. The sites of Hymenoptera bites will hurt for several days. To reduce the brightness of the pain syndrome, traditional medicine recommends using simple means, especially in the absence of special pharmaceutical preparations.

Parsley. Parsley is growing, probably, in every garden, and there are no problems with it in the city. Such a recipe will help relieve inflammation and eliminate pain:

1. Parsley leaves are chopped and poured with boiling water for 5 minutes.
2. Filter.
3. Apply gruel to the bite site.
4. Bandage for 2-3 hours.
5. At the end of the period, a new portion is applied.
6. After a day, the tumor will significantly decrease in size.

Olive oil. Olive oil contains polyunsaturated fatty acids, which restore tissue, relieve itching and flushing, nourish the skin. To obtain the effect, you need to lubricate the affected area 3-4 times a day. If there is no olive oil, then sunflower oil is also suitable, although the concentration of useful compounds in it is much lower.

Bow. Not everyone likes the smell of peeled onions, but its juice contains substances that neutralize bee venom. In addition, the plant has an effective bactericidal effect, which will also prevent infection of the wound.

To prepare the medicine, it is necessary to chop 1 onion and apply the pulp to the affected area. In this case, you can not avoid burning, but it eclipses the pain of a bite.

Aloe. Agave has a vasoconstrictor and anti-inflammatory effect. It is actively used for colds, but with a bee sting, the plant will also help. To do this, large leaves are cut in half and applied to the wound. Useful compounds will contribute to the speedy removal of edema, the elimination of itching and healing.

Prevention

You can protect yourself from insect attacks, and this is quite simple. The pharmaceutical industry produces various products, and Anti Wasp, Aries, Off are considered the most effective repellents for children and adults.

Near lakes and rivers, on flowering lawns and in forests it is rarely possible to do without repellents. But you can significantly reduce the likelihood of insect attacks:
