If you are familiar with bed bugs then you know they can cause a lot of havoc. This, in turn, can cause some bad reactions. What do I mean by that? Well, when you have some bed bug bites and you start scratching them — you can get an allergic reaction, and this can look pretty disgusting. If you see red or swollen skin where the bites are and pus oozing out of them, then the bites have turned into bed bug bites infections (symptoms). I used to suffer bad bed bug bites on my hands and legs, which would cause a horrible rash to appear. After trying a number of things I found what really worked. Hopefully this helps someone else out there get healed up.Bed bug bites are very common amongst people across the world.

BedBug bites can cause skin rashes and hives;

Bed bugs are not known to transmit any diseases to humans. However, bed bug bites can cause skin rashes and hives. Bites may also trigger asthma or breathing difficulties; anaphylactic shock (a severe allergic reaction); or arthritic symptoms.

Skin itching accompanied by arthritic symptoms;

The skin itching accompanied by arthritic symptoms are the main signs of bed bug bites. The reason behind this is that the bite causes an allergic reaction, which causes you to itch. You should use an anti-inflammatory cream or a corticosteroid ointment to treat itchy skin and arthritic symptoms. If your doctor prescribes them for you, take them as instructed.

If you have been bitten by a bed bug, wash all your clothes and bedding in hot water (130 degrees Fahrenheit) or dry clean them if possible. Wash all other items that may have come into contact with the bugs at least twice in hot water with detergent, according to Consumer Reports Health (May 2009). Make sure to vacuum thoroughly around baseboards and furniture legs; this helps prevent further spread of any eggs or bugs still lurking in those areas.
