Herbal Remedies for Insect Bites

Insect bites can produce redness, swelling, pain, and itching.

An herbal program can include immune stimulants and soothing, demulcent herbs for external application. When a mild to moderate immune reaction occurs, anti-allergic herbs may be helpful. For severe reactions, call a physician immediately.
