Re: Bug bite
My son in Italy got the sickest bug bites. His legs & arms were completely swollen. We bought like a calamine lotion. It took a while to go down, like 3-4 days. I would still call the doc when you can but I wouldnt worry. I hope I helped

Re: Bug bite
This happened to DD's leg a couple weeks ago. The Ped said to use Bacitracin.

Re: Bug bite
Whenever DS gets bit by mosquitoes, he is always completely swollen the next day in the area that he was bit.
Usually within a couple of days the swelling goes down. I hope it starts to subside for you to ease your concerns.
