Like mosquito bites? I don't know how well this works because I haven't done it in years but when I was little my grandma would put toothpaste on our mosquito bites and it would stop them from itching.

Either that or some good old aloe vera. :lol:

One word ...SCRATCH!!
:joke:
Seriously, try some Calamine lotion or some Dermoplast, which is a spray-on anesthetic for minor scrapes and bites. Might help.

I always put ice on them...cuz I get them with sunburns. They come in pairs for me. So, it stops my itching for the time, and cools my skin. :cool:

toothpaste actually does work, or if you rub it instead of scratch it that sometimes helps
