What kind of insect bites will cause blisters?

As we enter spring and summer, with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, it is a good time for travel, and people are engaging in more and more outdoor activities. This is also the time when human skin is easily bitten by various mosquitoes and insects. People with sweet blood are particularly susceptible to being attacked by flying insects. Their limbs and faces are often covered with bites, causing pain and swelling. Blisters may also appear on the bites, which are extremely itchy and may even lead to infection if scratched. So what kind of insect bites can cause blisters?

1. Causes

During spring and summer, a large number of plants and animals reproduce vigorously, which easily causes bites from various arthropod insects to the exposed skin of the human body. People with high sugar levels in their blood are particularly susceptible to insect attacks.

2. Which insects are likely to bite people?

1. Based on the number of insect injuries in previous years, experts have unanimously compiled the types of insects that bite the most and are the most rampant, mainly: mosquitoes, mites, wasps, rove beetles, caterpillars, fleas and ants.

2. The body fluid of the rove beetle is highly acidic, and contact with the skin will cause erythema, papules, and pustules. If you find a rove beetle on your skin, do not slap it. Once it dies on the skin, its body fluids will come into contact with and penetrate into the skin. Go to the hospital as soon as possible if you feel any discomfort.

2. Symptoms

After being bitten by an insect, the affected skin may develop insect bite dermatitis, which often causes symptoms such as blisters, redness, swelling and pain. Different insect species and body reactivity can cause different skin reactions at the bite site. It is generally a red edematous papule with small blisters in the center, the size of soybeans, and is more common in exposed areas and around the waist.

IV. Hazards

1. Urticaria

Some people did not pay attention after being bitten by big ants. In addition, they have typical allergic constitutions. In the next few hours, they may develop bumps all over their body, feel itchy and uncomfortable, and have a fever all over the body. In the end, they had to hang the drip for two days before they got better. This is the typical symptom of urticaria caused by ant venom entering the body.

2. Leave scars

If you rashly slap a rove beetle on your body to death, the beetle's venom will enter the epidermis of your skin, and the bitten area may become red, swollen, painful, itchy, and fester, leaving a blister-like scar that requires the application of ointment to heal.

3. Severe discomfort symptoms

Once a person with an allergic constitution is bitten by an insect and develops severe discomfort symptoms such as vomiting, numbness of the limbs, blue or purple skin, difficulty breathing, chest pain, etc., do not treat it blindly. It is best to go to the hospital for treatment.

3. Prevention

1. Take more vitamin B in daily life. You can eat more vitamin B, especially people with type B and AB blood. Because studies have shown that mosquitoes don't like the smell of vitamin B. The vitamin B secreted by sweat glands will reduce the insects' desire to bite and reduce bites.

2. Mosquito nets or insecticides. To prevent all kinds of insects in summer, citizens can put up mosquito nets at home or use appropriate mosquito coils and other insecticides.

3. Try to stay in a safe space and wear long sleeves and long pants when going outdoors.
