Bruises and blisters are also common symptoms of skeeter syndrome. This bruising and blistering may be accompanied by pain at the site and can be a bit uncomfortable, depending on where the symptoms are occurring. There are several ways to treat the bruising without a trip to the doctor. Ice is a great method for not only reducing bruises but also providing soothing relief for any pain associated with the bruise. A cold, wet compress may also provide relief as well. Blistering can be treated by washing the affected area with warm water and soap and swabbing with iodine. Lancing the blister (draining with a needle or other sharp object) is not recommended unless done by a professional, as it can lead to infection. Once the blister opens and begins to drain, it should be coated with an antibacterial ointment or petroleum jelly and covered with a bandage to prevent infection until it heals.
