Generally those marks disappear with time, which may Range upto 2-3 months. People generally cannot distinguish new marks from old marks. No need to use any medicine. Best is to prevent new mosquito bites by putting on full pants and full shirts. Also take other precautions to prevent bites I.e., mosquito nets , repellants etc..
