Patient's question:
This has been going on for a long time. Is there anything abnormal in the test results? Should I go to the hospital for treatment? What would be the best way to do it?Doctor's answer:
When there are obvious signs of infection at the bite area, some anti-inflammatory ointment should be applied externally to the affected area, such as Neosporin. If the infection is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly to avoid delaying treatment. Avoid excessive scratching, as it can easily lead to infection. Scratching can also stimulate the leakage of tissue fluid and lymph fluid from the skin, causing the area to become red and swollen, and the more you scratch, the itchier it becomes. For those with sensitive skin, scratching may worsen the condition, leading to large areas of redness and swelling. It is highly recommended to pay close attention to hygiene and avoid scratching when infected.
