Ugh these stupid bugs. I got bit on the face, and usually the bites get bigger the next day..is there anyway I can prevent the swelling? I usually use (gross but) saliva and salt, it's a trick my nana taught me and it's always helped but I don't really want to use salt on my face, especially over night...lol. Help!

Using some Pawpaw ointment on the spot overnight might help :)

Hydrocortisone hun it helps with inflammation and the ichy feeling.

What doctors recommend is to clean it with soap (your regular face wash maybe) and ice it if it's irritated.

Put 1 or 2 drops of lavender oil on it. I've had so many bad bug bites and this really helps to speed up the recovery process for me and helps a little with the itch as well.

Ugh I feel yah Renay! Mosquitos love my face and yes the swelling looks horrible the next day. I usually get bitten right under my eye so it looks like someone punched me the next day. lol. So, Besides the hydrocortisone that I usually apply several times a day, I put a cold spoon in the freezer for a few mimutes and placed it on top of the bit and it helped a lot!

That happens to me ALL the time! I was suggested here on BL to wear an eye mask at night (& maybe spray the exterior with a natural bug spray) because they always seem to bite my eyelids and get me all swollen! Some extra advice, use a plug-in anti mosquito appliance to prevent them from biting in the first place.
