Infected Insect Bite Treatment in Hampshire
Infected insect bite treatment in Hampshire involves reducing inflammation, preventing further infection, and ensuring proper wound care. Mild infections can often be managed at home by cleaning the bite with warm water and soap, applying an antiseptic cream, and keeping the area covered to prevent scratching. Over-the-counter antihistamines and pain relief, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen, can help ease discomfort and swelling. However, if the bite becomes increasingly red, swollen, warm, or starts oozing pus, it may require medical attention. A GP or pharmacist may recommend antibiotic creams or, in more severe cases, a course of oral antibiotics to clear the infection. Seeking early treatment can help prevent complications, and using insect repellent and covering exposed skin can reduce the risk of future bites.
