Two days ago, I woke up with 2 huge bites on my leg. At first, I thought maybe they were mosquito bites, but these were BIG! I immediately began putting the lavender essential oil on the bites to take off the itch. I probably put lavender or purify on the affected areas about 5-7 times yesterday. Last night, I woke up and both of the bites were itching like crazy!! So, I again put on lavender every 3-5 minutes 3 times. I was able to go back to sleep.
Wishing I had “Day 1” pictures. Yesterday it looked like a giant mosquito bite about 1 inch diameter. This picture is day 2. You can see that the venom is coming to the surface. It is healing quick.
Day 1-OUCH & GROSS!! |
Day 3: Didn’t wake in the night to itch! And it hasn’t itched all day. Haven’t been as faithful with the oils but have applied at least twice. The area is drying out and less red. Yeah!
Day 3 |
Day 5-Looking good! No itching and well on our way to healing. |
