ANSWERS FROM LORYHL DAVIS
QUESTION: My great granddaughter (11 yrs old) has a mosquito bite on her upper arm. The bite caused severe swelling, then a blister that now is oozing  I think it's a allergic reaction. Is there  an herbal remedy we can try?

ANSWER: If you could mix, aloe vera, gel from the fresh plant, and honey, with acacia powder, sumac powder or golden seal powder, this would help if you would put it on the mosquito bite.  Also administer the homeopathic, Apis, 30c , 3 pellets two times per day, for two weeks, this helps with reactive problems from bug bites.

ANSWERS FROM KAREN MALLENGER
QUESTION: Is there anything I can take for tickbite fever. I am pregnant

ANSWER: I'd seek medical advise immediately. Are you quite certain it is tickbite
fever and not something else? Have you had it diagnosed? Because you are
pregnant, a medical professional is your best line of defense.
