Insect Bites and Stings

Understanding Insect Bites and Stings

Insect bites and stings are common occurrences, especially during outdoor activities. They can be caused by various insects such as mosquitoes, bees, wasps, ants, and spiders. While most insect bites and stings are harmless and cause only minor irritation, some can lead to more serious reactions, especially if the child is allergic to the insect venom.

Schedule an Appointment

If you observe these symptoms in your child and are concerned about an insect bite or sting, especially if there are signs of an allergic reaction, it is important to seek a comprehensive evaluation from a healthcare professional. Scheduling an appointment with us can help in obtaining a proper diagnosis and developing an effective treatment plan to manage your child’s symptoms and ensure their well-being.

  • Visible Puncture Marks: Small puncture marks or tiny holes in the skin where the insect bit or stung.

  • Localized Heat: The area around the bite or sting may feel warm to the touch.

  • Blisters or Hives: In some cases, blisters or hives may form around the bite or sting site.

  • Allergic Reactions: Severe reactions can include difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, dizziness, or a rapid heartbeat. These symptoms require immediate medical attention.
