Stings/insect bites
Who do I see?
Community Pharmacy / GP if infected
Advice:
Please visit your local pharmacy who can advise you of any treatment.
If the pharmacy feel the bite is infected or needs further medical attention please call the practice on 0345 337 6350 between 8.30-10am or 2.00-2.30pm and give the reception team as much information as you can and one of the clinicians will get back to you that day. It would also be useful to the clinician if you are able to upload a photograph of the bite using the ‘upload a photo’ icon on the first screen of the website.
