Applying a cool compress can help soothe itching and reduce swelling. For mild itching, you can use a pediatrician-recommended over-the-counter antihistamine cream or lotion, but avoid applying anything without consulting your doctor first. Ensure she wears protective clothing and uses mosquito nets to prevent future bites. If you notice any signs of severe allergic reaction, such as difficulty breathing, swelling, or if the bites appear infected (redness, warmth, or pus), seek medical attention immediately.
