How can I prevent insect bites in the first place?
Use insect repellent, wear long sleeves and pants in mosquito-prone areas, and avoid tall grass and brush where ticks may be present.
Do I need to see my GP after the Pharmacy First consultation?
Not usually. The Pharmacy First Infected Insect Bite service at Touchwood Pharmacy Bromley is intended to be a one-stop-shop for most patients. Instead of tying the GP or spending hours trying to see a doctor, Touchwood Pharmacy can examine your bites and devise a course of treatment. But always remember to follow the pharmacist’s instructions and seek further help if needed.
