Insect bites are an absolute pain, especially when it feels like you can escape the itching and scratching.
But what if there was a potential solution that was medicinal creams or medication? Well, we may have
the solution for you! In this blog post, we will discuss bug bites, how they can affect someone, and what
CBD can do to help relieve the pain/discomfort.

So, how do bug bites affect the human body? When someone is stung or bitten by an insect, there is
generally high levels of pain and/or discomfort. Depending on the type of bug, some bites can lead to
infections, allergic reactions, illnesses, etc.. In the case you experience any serious symptoms, go to a
local doctor immediately to get treated. When a bug bites or stings you, their saliva, or the venom that
they inject causes an immune system response. For most people, the direct response is redness and
swelling, followed by itching and soreness. People who are sensitive or allergic to an insect’s venom may
go into anaphylactic shock, a life-threatening condition. Luckily, in most cases, A bite or a sting will cause fairly minor symptoms. There are a number of insects and spiders that bite or sting. This includes ticks, mites, bedbugs, fleas, lice, horse flies, mosquitos, black flies, bees, yellow jackets, hornets, fire ants, and wasps. For most people, being stung or bitten by a bug is a minor inconvenience that results in redness, inflammation, pain, and itchiness. But even though these symptoms go away after a few days or a week, it can be hard to not let a bug bite drive you crazy.

CBD can help you stop focusing on the bite or sting by alleviating some of the more bothersome symptoms. CBD works well due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Scientists have determined that CBD may help to reduce both pain and inflammation alike.
