Old and new mosquito bites

2025-04-22 09:29:43
Hello doctor I always get bitten by mosquitoes and I have a habit of scratching it's too itchy and then it bleeds and leaves a mark that stay for many months. I have a few marks which are very old and looks black and bad. Could you suggest some ointment that will remove those marks.
