Question: Why do bug bites itch and why do they get worse when you itch them!?

Answers:
There is poison in the venom and the itching is your body trying to heal the spot
like a healing cut will itch
they itch more when you scratch you spread out the venom and it itches more also it feels good when you scratch but it is bad and will make it take longer to heal
so next time slap the bite it will stop itching but not damage the skin further!.
also you can make a paste of baking soda and water and as it drys up it will suck out the poisonWww@Answer-Health@Com

Not all bug bites itch!. Some bugs inject a chemical into the bite that prevents your blood from clotting!. As a side effect it causes your skin to swell and itch!. Mosquitoes are, obviously, the best example of this!.

In my experience it doesn't get worse when you itch them, unless you itch so hard the skin breaks!. Then it itches because it's healing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
