Over the years, I have developed many allergies and intolerances to many things. From pollen to different foods—and especially bug bites.
For example, mosquito bites cause some very angry and large welts where I've been bitten. Naturally, these are intensely itchy, and I have to try everything in my power not to scratch them to avoid infection or further irritation.
However, another pest that attacked me during the early part of summer while I was running was chiggers, scientifically known as trombiculid mites. Chiggers are microscopic arachnids that burrow into your skin and live off your skin cells. Their waste is what causes the intense itching and swelling reactions.
There are many ways folks treat their chigger bites, with remedies such as clear fingernail polish to help suffocate the mites. However, when it comes to soothing the itch, I tried one product that I can confidently stand by and is part of my 'allergy kit.'
Naturasil Bite & Itch Relief
The roll-on is what I like to call my small wonder. I've used over-the-counter and prescription hydrocortisone creams to soothe the relentless itch these nasty little buggers cause. I found that with the hydrocortisone creams, you must carefully apply them per instructions. You can't use it more than a few times a day – and sometimes there isn't much relief from it.
After being frustrated and feeling miserable because of my intense reaction, with nothing seeming to help, I decided to try Naturasil Bite & Itch Relief. The 100% natural blend of essential oils can be applied quickly and liberally, giving me instant relief from the sometimes borderline painful itching!
The best part is that it soothed my itching and relieved some swelling over time! I could focus on work much easier without any incessant frustrating itch, and I could get back to my usual fitness routine within a day or two after because of the dramatic relief!
So, if you're like me and have mild to more severe reactions to bug bites, don't hesitate to try Naturasil Bite & Itch Relief! You can rest assured that you will get fantastic relief without resorting to steroid-based creams that don't do much for the itching. I'm a lifetime fan of this incredible product!
Also, don't forget to pick up some of the Naturasil Sulfur-Lavender Soap to help treat and soothe your skin. This all-natural medicated soap helped to speed up the treatment of the chiggers and kept my skin healthy and clean, reducing the risk of infection or prolonged need for treatment!
