If a baby's face is bitten by a mosquito and presents as small red bumps, topical application of erythromycin eye ointment or calamine lotion is recommended, without the need for oral medication. If the baby's face exhibits large red swellings accompanied by crying and irritability, oral administration of calcium gluconate solution and loratadine syrup may be given. Additionally, appropriate application of mometasone furoate cream and fusidic acid cream can be used externally. Mild cases can achieve rapid relief and recovery.
