Weird bites?!


Question: i have a bunch of bites all over my left leg on the top.

they look like mosquito bites, but i havent been outside.

i asked my dad if it was bedbugs and he said that if i had them, they wouldnt bite you in one particular area?

could it just be an allergic reaction to maybe this new body wash?
or from shaving?

I've had two bouts with mysterious bites. One incident turned out to be cat fleas. I super cleaned my house, bathed the two cats and treated them for fleas. That was the end of the bites.
If you've been holding puppies or kittens in our lap or sleeping with your pet, this is a good bet.

The second turned out to be pis ants (very tiny ants). Apparently either Dh or I dropped a piece of a cookie that fell between our mattress and the headboard. I had several bites on my neck and shoulder. Dh had a couple on his arm. I found the ants and a chunk of a cookie two days after the biting started when I changed the linen. I went outside to see if I could find where they were coming in. I did find several holes near the bedroom wall. I sprayed them all and that took care of the problem.

It could also be some sort reaction, more likely shaving than your body wash.

Sounds like you have scabies, also known as body lice.

It's probably from a spider. Spiders usually bite in clusters, but it's usually only like 3 to 5 bites.
Also, I was in class today and they were talking about MRSA. Often people think they are spider bites, when it's actually a staph infection. Do they look like pimples a little?
Those would be my 2 best guesses.

Have you been holding any pets on your lap? could be fleas. even 1 can bight many times. they would be itchy.
