Why Do Mosquito Bites Itch So Much, and How Can You Stop Them Naturally? - #15261
I always seem to get mosquito bites, and the itching drives me crazy! I know that when a mosquito bites, it injects saliva that causes an allergic reaction, but why do some people have more intense itching and swelling than others? I also noticed that my mosquito bites last longer and sometimes turn into large red welts, while other people barely react. Does this mean I have a stronger allergic response, or could it be related to blood type or immune system differences? What are the best natural remedies to stop the itching and swelling from mosquito bites? I’ve heard that aloe vera, tea tree oil, and baking soda help—do these actually work? Also, are there any Ayurvedic methods to repel mosquitoes naturally? I read that using neem oil, citronella, and camphor can help—has anyone tried these, and how effective are they? If anyone has found a fast and effective mosquito bite remedy, please share what worked best for you!
