Symptoms of bedbug bites:
You will notice that the bed
bug bites are clustered in
groups of roughly 3 and do
not have a dark "blood red"
centre to them (unless you
have been vigorously
scratching them!). The tiny
bumps you can see are formed
where the bed bug has
pierced the skin for feeding
and injected a tiny bit of
saliva that contains 2
active ingredients required
for feeding. The first is an
anticoagulant that stops the
blood from clotting (to
allow a free flow of blood
for feeding), and the second
is an anaesthetic to numb the
area (to enable undetected
feeding). Depending upon
your reaction to each of
these active ingredients,
you will get a raised bump
where the bed bug has been
feeding. Reactions range
from absolutely no sign at
all, to a swelling the size
of an egg, but the bites
shown above are what 90% of
people will experience. |

Treatment of bedbug bites:
Bedbug
bites usually improve
without the need for any
treatment. However, if they
become particularly itchy or
swollen, then you might find
antihistamines beneficial
for these symptoms.
Antihistamine tablets can be
bought directly from the
chemist without prescription
or obtained with a
prescription from your GP
(but in either case, it is
always advisable to consult
with a medical
professional). Sometimes
hydrocortisone cream can be
recommended by your doctor.
If your bites become
infected, then your doctor
will prescribe you
antibiotic cream or tablets
to clear up the infection. |
