Insect Bites

Also known as Bug Bites, Mosquito Bites, Insect Stings

Insect bites and stings — from mosquitoes, ants, fleas, and similar insects — typically cause localized itching, redness, and mild swelling that resolve within a few days without treatment. The evidence base for specific bite remedies is thin; most guidance is standard first-aid practice rather than trial-tested. Signs of a severe allergic reaction (difficulty breathing, widespread swelling, dizziness) are a medical emergency, not something to address at home.
