I'm sorry to hear about the painful wound from the insect bite on your neck. Here's what you can do to care for it:
If the pain worsens, the wound shows signs of infection, or you experience other symptoms like fever or spreading redness, please consult a dermatologist promptly.
For now, avoid using any creams without medical advice, especially if you have allergies or sensitive skin. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a doctor before using any medication.
If you notice any severe allergic reactions like difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, seek emergency medical help immediately by calling Apollo Emergency at 1066.
Taking these steps can help your wound heal safely.
