No matter what kind of climate you live in, you've probably been bitten by a mosquito one too many times. That irritating feeling of itchy skin followed by redness is a typical allergic reaction to mosquito bites that most people experience. But for people with extreme mosquito bite allergies, the symptoms can be a little harder to manage.
Skeeter Syndrome is an allergy to mosquito saliva, resulting in severe allergic reactions. Mosquitoes inject a thinning agent into our blood, since it's too thick for them to siphon as is. That agent is their saliva, which contains allergenic polypeptides that cause the body to react to the enzymes. For people with Skeeter Syndrome, this can mean a whole lot of discomfort.
