Help! My 8-year-old was bitten by this strange bug, and I’m really worried. My sister-in-law nearby has seen similar ones. Any idea what it is?

Your Gentle First Aid (A Ritual of Care)
Wash with love:
→ Gently cleanse the spot with mild soap and cool water.
→ No harsh scrubs—just tenderness.
Cool the moment:
→ Wrap an ice cube in a clean cloth; hold it for 1 minute.
→ Sing a soft song while you do—this calms you both.
Comfort the spirit:
→ “It’s okay, sweetheart. That little bug was just as surprised as you!”
→ Offer a cool drink of water—hydration soothes the nervous system.
Skip creams and medicines. This pinch needs no treatment—only your steady presence.

When to Listen Deeper (Rare, But Worth Knowing)
In 10,000 earwig encounters, you might see one reaction needing care. Watch for:
🩺 Within 1 hour:
→ Swelling larger than a quarter
→ Hives spreading to other areas
→ Trouble breathing or swallowing
→ Call 911. (This is anaphylaxis—not from earwigs, but from something else.)
