As fears of bed bug infestation continue to circulate around the UK, a group of health experts have urged people to be cautious when it comes to treating potential bites.
As France continues to deal with a plague of bed bugs infesting their homes and public spaces, people across the UK are taking all preventative measures to avoid the pesky bugs.
It can be challenging to identify bed bug bites because "they can resemble other insect bites or several skin conditions". "You should also keeping the affected area clean and don't scratch the bites to avoid getting an infection." "Children under 10 and pregnant women should get advice from a doctor before using hydrocortisone cream."
A severe allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis is also possible but rare. Symptoms such as swelling of your throat and tongue or difficulty breathing usually start within minutes of coming into contact with something you're allergic to, such as bite.
