Itchy, red and blotchy


Yup thats exactly what I am, attractive huh?
Think the west coast midges have taken leave and headed for the east coast.
I have been coating myself in sudacreme but it aint taking the bloody itch away.

Re: Itchy, red and blotchy


I do sympathise. I have several bites but am finding that Lanes Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Cream works far better than antihistamine. Mind you, the cream does pong!

Do you have Benedryl liquid in a dispenser rub-on tube? Works for me with those lumpy burning itching mosquito bites. How I hate them!

Re: Itchy, red and blotchy


I'd go for the antihistamine pills from the chemist first thing in the morning. Get the non drowsy ones though.
