Camping is enjoyable, but safety and hygiene should also be taken into consideration. If you accidentally get bitten by mosquitoes, red bumps may appear on your skin. This' red bump 'not only has obvious itching, but also a mild burning and stinging sensation. However, some people may develop more and more rashes, even blisters and bullae. After the rash subsides, brown pigmentation will remain, which takes a long time to subside and affects their appearance. The rash after mosquito bites has certain characteristics, usually red, hard to the touch, scattered, and of relatively consistent size. Due to differences in immune responses among individuals, the appearance of rashes also varies to some extent. The reaction after the rash subsides also varies from person to person. Some people may leave no trace after the rash subsides, while others may experience more pigmentation. In most cases, these rashes can trigger obvious itching, but there is also a small percentage of people who do not experience obvious itching. The treatment purpose of papular urticaria is to alleviate itching, control skin inflammation, shorten the duration of rash, control systemic allergic reactions, etc. If there is accompanying infection, treatment is also necessary. In addition, calamine lotion and Chonglou detoxification ointment can also relieve itching and relieve scratching. Topical antibiotic ointments can prevent secondary infections in scratched skin. The above medications are recommended for camping trips. Of course, if you have papular urticaria, you need to use the medication mentioned above again. For a small amount of local rash, topical medication can be used to relieve itching; For more common and increasingly frequent rashes, oral medication can be added; If the patient's rash continues to increase despite oral medication, they need to seek medical attention. Some rashes are too itchy, and we unconsciously scratch them. In addition, the rash has a certain degree of swelling, and it is common for the rash to be scratched. This situation often occurs in children. Papular urticaria can resolve on its own, with a natural course of about two weeks. A small number of patients may develop chronic lesions and have a prolonged course of illness due to improper treatment or personal physical problems. If the skin is scratched, there is a risk of pigmentation. If there is still pigmentation after the rash subsides, the time for it to subside may be longer. A friend wants to ask, what should I do if I don't bring any medicine while camping and get bitten by mosquitoes and itchy? I would rather pinch locally than scratch. In addition, itching can be relieved through local cooling and cold compress. (New Society)
