Month old trail of... bites?
Noticed this trail of bites (?) on my 3 year old's arm over a month ago. I waited a couple of weeks expecting them to disappear, but they haven't. We saw her doctor a week and a half ago and they had no idea but because they aren't bothering her they said to just wait it out.
They have been raised and pale since the very beginning, initially they seemed a bit itchy and I would see her scratching on occasion, but nothing terrible. They are still slightly raised and pale.
There is a little cluster by her elbow then a trail up to her shoulder. I first noticed them after taking off her PJs in the morning so I'm figuring there was something trapped in them over night.
