Why do mosquitos bite me so frequently?!


Question: Why do mosquitos bite me so frequently!?
I recently moved to Thailand from America and I noticed that I attract mosquitos much more frequently than other foreigners!. They will mainly bite my feet and ankles, or whatever exposed areas they can; in addition, their saliva causes a highly irritable reaction on my skin!. It usually feels unbearable when getting bit!.!.!. like a burning itch running through my veins; while at the same time my skin around the bite becomes extremely puffy and swollen!. I will generally scratch the area until I bleed!. What can I do, other than using repellant, to avoid getting bit!? And if I do get bit, what can I do to reduce the irritation!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Could be because you sweat more than other people!. But sweating in itself is not the cause but the symptom of a bigger problem, namely that your body emits slightly more heat than other humans!. Mosquitoes are attracted to warmest (i!.e!. more visible to them) target, so they'll pick you instead of your neighbour!.

As to what you can do about it!? Well, other than the standard protection against mosquitoes, not much, I'm afraid!. You could try keeping cool by drinking cold liquids and being relaxed!. Also wearing some light-colored, breathable clothes with long sleeves might help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would say its the type blood u have possibly!. My hubby is their favorite target here where as they don't bother me at all!. He has type AB positive, dark complexion, dark hair !. !. me I have RH B- , fair complexion, blond hair!. He claws his ankles also until they bleed!. We spray his feet & ankles with athlete's foot spray!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I moved to Texas I had the same problem!. I was diagnosed with diabetes!. I got my blood sugar under control and also, at a docs recommendation, started taking a high does (b100) vitamin b complex!. I get bit much less now!. Don't know which was the cure!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use anti-bite medicine such as AfterBite!. Try to shower frequently (daily, I suggest) and keep clean!. Also, put some nets around yourself when you sleep!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
