✰ 𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐌𝐄 ✰
I’m Dr. Dana Brems, also known as Foot Doc Dana. As a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM), I treat everything from trauma including broken bones, other sports injuries, foot wounds, calluses, thick or ingrown nails; you name it! Being a #doctor is a serious job, but we can have a lighthearted side too. That's why I created this channel- to make medical themed #shorts videos for fun, while also helping to answer your questions.

I just hold my skin against hot vessels whenever mosquitoes bite so the bacterias may die.

I put rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer on them. Relieves itchies immediately

[SurbyDev]

One of the channels that are actually useful

[ScaryPastaYuck]

Just don’t scratch it and it goes away for me

The mosquitoes inject an anesthetic into the skin so you don't feel them sucking out your blood. Most people are alergic to this anesthetic. That is what itches so bad. Since it is a histamine reaction, i pop a couple of histamine blockers like Allegra, and the thing disapears in about an hour.

Little me getting hammer:
"I'm about to end this bumps whole career"

[real_lobo]

I’m sticking with the tried and true x 😃

[Leeaslife]

i use eye solution or sanitizer. works like a charm. trust me.

When was a kid, when itching i used to put soap where its itching, most cases did nothing

[SpreadLoveAndKindnessNotHate]

I have Skeeter Syndrome and have a lot of swelling and experience extreme itching to the point that I bruise my skin from scratching so much. These are some really helpful remedies to use!! I usually use calamine lotion but will have to try those other methods 😊💜

[red_fox_lamos]

Ah thank you I've been trying to get rid of them❤

[Zhenya]

I just leave it be after some time if you don't bother it at all it will stop itching and will even heal faster

[Pajamina]

Not a mosquito bite but when i had poison ivy on my arms i used a baking soda water paste and it was cooling and stopped my skin from itching. The only problem was that when it dried the grainy texture was unpleasant to wash off because of the sores.

[richinnerbrains]

The sap from an Aloe plant helped me when I had mosquito bites. It also helped relieve sunburns.

[TCCE]

Why don't podiatrists get upset when they lose? Because they are great at handling de feet. 😂😂

[wickie]

I'm sure this probably isn't recommended but a long time ago I discovered that if I put rubbing alcohol on top of it it not only removes the itch entirely but it also makes it heal way faster. I'm not entirely sure why

[marxp]

I can relate to this in another way
I have a chronic or inflammatory disease I don't really remember that basically gives you a constant itch on one specific part of your body
The really bad thing is it can spread throughout your body

no girl might ever love me but mosquitoes love me unconditionally

Here's 1 more!
Step 1: take a spoon
Step 2:run the spoon under hot water
Step 3: Put the spoon on you bite
Step 4: Take the spoon off and check if the itch is gone!

If not gone, repeat.
