summer's here....and here comes the mozzies!! -angry i think the mosquitos must either hate or find my blood so yummy, lol that they attack me several times on my face, arm, hand and ear lobe...-pirate now my face and arm etc is swollen..red.and ITCHY.>.< i hate the damn things....i've applied ice packs to the swollen area, but it doesnt seem to help much... i dont know what to do...please help....-unsure
That really sucks. I usually dab some alcohol on the itchy area/or use insect bite cream. It helps soothes the itchiness. Sometimes, I take a little needle, poke the spot and dab alcohol on it when it get extremely itchy, but I wouldn't recommend you to do it XD.
reminds me of when i went to vietnam, they seemed to love my blood or something...interesting fact though is that only the female mosquitos bite you cause they need the nourishments for their eggs.
yep, its true, only the females suck...in biology class we also learnt how a mosquito sucks...interesting but kinda eerie at the same time..
^ i use the liquid version, mopidick thats if i get stinged i used to get stinged quite alot when i was young (only when i go to HK, not where i reside currently ... no mosq's here) but in the more recent years when i went to HK i hardly got stang at all, maybe they don't like the taste of my blood anymore -lol .... i have been hearing stories from my cousin that they like the taste of foreign blood since the mosq been sucking on the locals more haha bear in mind the mopiko brand is for relieving pain you might want to consider other brands that are used to keep the mosq away so you won't get more bites especially when you sleep and don't scratch the swollen areas or it will swell more
hah good topic to talk about u can call me the mosquito magnet all my life i have issues with mosquetos i think those bastards just love my blood or something .. like sitting in the living all those shitty bastards just only suck on me ... not my dad, mom brother sister-in-law or my little nephew. its like ihave to get bitten at least three times a day the worst one i remem ber in london was when i walked from chinatown up to regent st when i got into a toys shop i realise i was bitten 4 times on my bloody face WHY ME!!!!!!
use anti mosquito inscent so that they wont come into ur room anymore... i used this chinese ointment for the bites its called 999....maybe u can give that a go...
really really hot water... not enuff to burn u, but just really hot water... put ur bite under it for 10 seconds... it should itch really badly during that time... then u should be fine... my favorite chinese remedy for mosquito bites though is the bak fah yau? or if litterally translated to english white flower oil?... its a really small bottle with a clear oil... it should burn for about 5mins after u apply it... then u get a nice cool feeling around the area... -innocent
^I love the cooling effect! And there's Ping On ointment (in a tiny pink plastic box) I love to apply on mosquito bites...and to apply it randomly around my eye areas...-rolleyes Makes the tears coming out of my eyes but I love that sensational feeling! -lol
haha when i go abroad, i never get bitten, i have natural immunity if that doesnt work just spray yourself with DET!!
take note that if your in areas of the countryside like Lam Tsuen, there is a high chance you can get bitten, thats unless you turn on the air con in your house where as when you live in the city areas in there won't be as much, so it depends where you reside and yes i live in the Lam Tsuen area when i do go aboard
