After-bite products are intended to soothe and care for the skin after mosquito and other insect bites. They are commonly chosen when itching, redness, stinging or local skin irritation occurs.
This category includes gels, creams and other products intended for use after an insect bite. For products designed to help prevent bites, see Insect protection.
For mild local reactions, soothing and cooling skin-care products may help reduce discomfort and the urge to scratch. Scratching should be avoided because it can further irritate the skin.
