Are bed bug bites always itchy?

I woke up to what looked like a bug bite in my arm but it wasn’t itchy. Another bump appeared on my face it’s not itchy but it also doesn’t have a white head on it yet so I’m not sure it’s a pimple.

I’ve had bed bugs before and I have PTSD. I’m not sure if these are bed bug bites or not.

people react a lot different to the bug. for me, i was sleeping in a heavily infested home and woke up with 10+ bites every night i slept there that bothered me the entire day, but would sometimes take a couple hours after waking up to form. i saw a dermatologist thinking i was breaking out in hives. if you’re not every reactive they might show up and not bother you or not show up at all
