zyrtec

Avatar n tn t hurt so much as they itch - ALOT! Do you have any idea what they could be? They look like mosquito bites but its wintry and snowy outside and I havent seen one mosquito. The more I scratch them, the more pink they become; they also get a little bigger. This morning I got 2 more on my fingers. Any ideas about what this skin problem can be?
Avatar n tn also we put a cover over his mattress and washed his fav blankie. we have only seen a very small hAndful of bites since. thank you for your help, its very much appreciated and i would like to add that out of all the med sites ive been to ur not only the only free one ive come across (very helpful) but you are the only one that actually replies (double helpful) so kudos to you sir or maam for being an awesome humanitarian!
Avatar f tn I have tried to go without Zyrtec for 24 hours and my legs started to itch in white little patches (like mosquito bites) and thats when I know I still have it. Iam going to see the Specialist next week for the 2nd time to see my blood results, so will let you know how that goes and hopefully have a cure.
Avatar n tn About 2 weeks ago I woke up with what I thought was 2 mosquito bites on my stomach, they kinda itched but I didnt think anything of it... now its still here along with others (the size of pin heads) almost 2 weeks later in almost a rash look...The are on my stomach, back, neck and the very top of my thighs, and also armpits. I itch very bad. and it seems to be worse in the morning and at night and after a hot shower. I have cleaned sheets. I am on Zyrtec and a topical aveeno anti-itch cream.
Avatar m tn I believe it may be a allergic reaction to something or moquito bites. But I do not think it is mosquito bites anymore because it has been five days. I used Hydrocortisone Cream USP 2.5% and a All Day Allergy pill 10 mg. The pill seems to be helping as I feel better. But I can't help scratching it. It is on my arms, legs, back, upper chest, and ears. But I am still not sure if it is getting better. Please help ASAP!
Avatar f tn I was told to take zyrtec. Now I have a rash on my upper thighs. Is it the generic zyrtec? Would the regular Zyrtec do the same? Have you ever heard of Diamox being prescribed for Meneire's disease? I find nothing in the literature about it and am hesitant to take it as it makes me very tired. I need to sleep about 3 hours a day when I take it. I don't want to experience vertigo again.
1759659 tn?1312975493 B1 can help but I used one patch and mosquitos stil bites me (fewer bites).When you have alot of bites very heplful is Hydrocotisone Cream to reduce itching and you can take oral anthistamine Zyrec everyday.Take care.
1460021 tn?1445735958 I'm guessing that would be "mosquito bites" Sara. Here in the US, it's benadryl that is the magic bullet for allergies.
Avatar n tn t usually ever scratch mosquito bites, and for me they usually go away within the following 3-4 hours like they were never there. These bites that I have now, unless they're from another type of mosquito, aren't mosquito bites. There's no way. Nothing I have done has gotten rid of them yet, and they're driving me crazy. They don't look like hives, and there's no evidence of any bugs at all in my room, except a dead moth on the window sill.
Avatar n tn they actually look worse then the picture
Avatar f tn I have 3 mosquito bites looking thing on my vagina and I don't know what it's. I'm only 15 years old and I have not had sex yet. I'm super scared, does anyone know what it may be?
Avatar n tn I have discovered that for an intense itch, caused by mosquito, flea, fire ant or chigger bites, ACNE CREAM (10% BENZOYL PEROXIDE) is amazing - it immediately releaves the itch, the swelling, the burning from all sorts of bites. Question - is it harmful to use this for this purpose?
Avatar m tn A few hours after we came in I was itchy on my arms, legs and ears. At first I thought it was mosquito bites and would go away after a day. But three days passed, and I am still itching! I am using Hydrocortisone Cream USP 2.5% on them and they seem to be relieved but only for about 10 minutes. I can't help scratching them! They are also taking part of my sleep time away just trying to keep from scratching! I have multiple bumps on my arms and legs.
Avatar m tn hi in the last week or so i have gotten these mosquito like bits that seem to apear out of nowhere they are itchy for a bit and look exactly like a mosquito bite but as they healed they kind of had a little spot in the middle , i dont know im sure there not bed bug bites or anything like that the weird thing is that my girlfriend has gotten a couple of the same "bites" im just wondering what if any disease's would have this type of symptom or am i just being paranoid???
Avatar f tn When I first looked at it I had stretched the skin like I usually do for big bites to try to determine if it was a mosquito or spider and the top was white like most of my mosquito bites and I didnt see any 2 spots like spiders leave so it could be a mosquito but because of it being on my breast I got worried and read about IBC and because it grew what looks like 50% in size I got worried and wanted to ask here last night it was the size of a nickle and now maybe the size of a quarter or slight
1055603 tn?1254235958 This past week i began to get little bumps that at first looked like a mosquito bite, and because of the habit i began to scratch it. Within a few minutes the one bump became several and it swoll up and was red. I would stop scratching and they eventually jus disappear out of nowwhere and i couldn't even tell that they were there. I started taking pictures of them, because they started jus appearing and disapearing out of no where. Does anyone have a clue of what this might be?
Avatar n tn Doesnt exactly look like spider bites either. I havent eaten anything new or used anything new for detergant. Im rather concerned and I really dont think its hives, but could b wrong.
Avatar m tn We were sitting outside and a mosquito kept flying around us and we both tried to intimidate it away, however he felt a mosquito bite and so did I shortly after. What happens if the mosquito bites him, gets interrupted and continues to feed itself on me (just sitting next ti him). I am freaking out a little since I don't find an answer to my question. Mosquitos do not usually transmit hiv but what happens in this scenario? Should I test? Pep?
Avatar m tn Sir, Yesterday evening I went along to STD/HIV Clinic in Thailand again for getting my test result. While being in a room with one confirmed hiv positive patient, I was bitten by a mosquito quite a large one. Out of impulsive reaction, I squashed it and it left a large blood spot on my arm. I'm sure that the mosquito bites the hiv patient for sure because we're in the same room for long long time. The room is closed, and nobody else.
Avatar n tn I've gotten tons of spider bites before. For the most part they're similar to a mosquito bite, raised, irritated and a little hard. However, in my opinion they itch less and I do have less of a reaction to them. The mass majority of spider bites are nonvenomous so unless you start feeling extreme burning, pain, nausea or become feverish there's no need to worry.
15695260 tn?1549593113 This virus has been detected in chickens and is now spreading to humans via mosquito bites. So far, there have been on 7 reported cases but the death rate is very high with this mosquito borne virus. To protect yourself against EEE as well as West Nile Virus, be sure to use prevention methods to reduce risk of mosquito bites. https://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?
Avatar f tn My foot has been like this for the past 2 days. Part of me thinks it might not be mosquito bites - I have got some on my leg and they're often quite hard, but the spots you see on my foot are not the same and seem a little different. Thanks.
10052319 tn?1408978714 Its just so big and swelling :( and deodarant ill try that :)
Avatar m tn With my body warmed and having no insect repellent sprayed on it, my exposed legs became a feast for a bunch of hungry mosquitos. After the attack, I was left with 7-8 bites, one of which is the object of my worries. Complication: although all the rest of the bites produced the usual tiny red bumps, one bite produced a flat purple area around itself (the center being the most saturated in color), even though I never scratched it.
Avatar f tn The day after the 4th of July, I woke up WITH a cluster of little red bumps on the inside of my right ankle. My initial thought was "mosquito bites" so I thought nothing of it and put some benedryl cream on it. I did itch it occasionaly, but nothing too serious. Later that day, I realized I had a mosquito bite on the top of my left thigh. I did the same thing as I did with the other and put benedryl on it.
Avatar f tn They all dont always itch but its driving me crazy having random mosquito like bites around me. We checked everywhere for bed bugs turned the house upside down and found NO trace. I have a cat and found no fleas on him. I also thought it could be a roach bite/bites? i have seen them in the home before but i would think having random bites pop up every once in a while i'd see SOMETHING on me? HELP!!!!
