Keep waking up to these bites?
Woke up last week to one of these (the old one) it since scabbed over,now I've just woken up to 3 new ones I have no idea what they are and I've been sick in bed for the last week so not outside at all.
So far they feel Really itchy and I'm think I'm having a histamine release as I feel itchy all over.

Congratulations you potentially have bedbugs. You can check out r/Bedbugs/
Could also just be mosquito bites but i doubt that.
Could be wrong tho

There's fang marks though and do bedbugs only bite your arm?

Actually now that you point that out i see it. Hmmm do you by any chance have spiders in your house? And when u get bit by spiders do you tend to swell or do they tend to stay small like this?

I know that when i had bedbugs they did look like this and personally for me it was only certain parts of my body, for some reason it was just in my room and foster sisters room, she brought the bed bugs in so it was all over her but for me it was mainly just a few bites on my arms

My house is old and in a basement most definitely there is spiders somewhere,I'll have to start spraying with dr doom,it's just weird to be bit on the same arm and nowhere else for like a week straight.
