To fully benefit from the effects of Olioseptil® Soothing After-Bite Roll-on, apply it to the affected area up to 4 times a day, as needed. It is important not to apply it to the face, mucous membranes, or irritated or broken skin. After application, avoid exposing the treated area directly to the sun.
Mosquito bites are common in summer and can be very unpleasant. Female mosquitoes bite to feed on blood, which allows them to produce eggs. Mosquito bites usually cause itching, redness, and swelling.
To avoid mosquito bites, it is recommended to wear light, long clothing that covers your arms and legs, use DEET-based repellents, and sleep under a mosquito net. It is also important to empty any sources of standing water around your home, as this can encourage mosquito breeding.
If you are bitten by a mosquito, it is important not to scratch the bite as this can worsen symptoms and increase the risk of infection. Tips for relieving the symptoms of a mosquito bite include applying a cold compress, using a cortisone-based anti-itch cream, and applying lavender or tea tree essential oil.
