One remedy is honey!
Honey contains a natural antimicrobial, so spreading a little honey on a minor cut or abrasion will help prevent infection and aide in healing.
For insect bites and stings, it may depend on the type of sting, but I know lavender oil is a natural relaxant that may reduce swelling and pain.
Rashes and poisons may also have varied remedies.
Hopefully someone can answer your other queries with more confidence!
Peace.
"Bites and Stings: The external effects of insect bites and stings can be greatly alleviated by the application of essential oils. The antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties of several oils can frequently bring relief from itching and inflammation. This is one of the occasions when you can use a drop of neat lavendaer or tea tree oil directly onto the affected area. Use the other oils in the bath or a cold compress, especially if there are several or many bits, as can be the caser with mosquito bites. If you are at all worried about someone seek immediate medical care.
Oils to use: Geranium, lavender, melissa/lemon balm, niaouli, sweet basil, sweet fennel, tea tree"
