Many parents feel worried if the baby is exposed to insect bites, especially mosquito bites. Itching and skin become reddish usually make babies become fussy. But actually you do not need to worry because the effects of mosquito bites are not as bad as you think.
The Mayo Clinic notes that most pediatricians can instantly identify whether a mosquito is biting a child dangerously or not. In addition, only the female mosquitoes can bite because the male mosquitoes get food from the nectar of flowers.
There are several risks associated with mosquito bites, but the Seattle Children's Hospital notes that it is rare. However, if your baby looks lethargic, having a rash that spreads quickly because of mosquito bites, has a fever or headache, immediately consult a doctor.
