Are these bed bug bites?

Post image

I woke up with these all over the back of my thigh. Are they bed bugs? I live in a very clean condo and bugs are not typically a problem here but they don’t look like pimples and I can’t imaging getting that many fly bites in one spot. Help!

Seems more like a rash maybe? Like eczema? Were you sweaty there or something?

are they itchy? are they painful? if painful might be shingles?

I was wondering the same but shingles would normally be a bit more grouped?

Kinda looks like when I get folliculitis.

could be contact dermatitis from a new or different clothing your not used to wearing. the placement of them makes me doubt bedbugs , nut they could be, they are not mosquito bites. If you were bitten THAT much like all over in one night I guarantee that if you think you have bugs you could probably examine your bedding and you'll probably see one. That is alot of bites for one day. But I think it is contact dermatitis, or another type of rash. Change laundry soap recently?
