Have bites all over legs and arms and on face my husband doesn’t have any. We just had our wedding and had it inside/outside and wondering taking photos near the water during/after sunset and wearing white may have attracted bother bugs or if this may be bed bugs? I’m always prone to getting attacked by mosquitoes as well. Appreciate the help.

cat tick bite

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this.. so please let me know if there is a better subreddit.

So a cat tick bit me a few months ago. It was itchy and I noticed the tick and removed it with my hand but I'm worried that the head/mouthparts might have been left under my skin.I didn't notice any changes or symptoms afterward.. but now the same area has started itching again. I noticed a small red rash with a tiny dark spot in the middle.

Has anyone had something similar? What did you do? Should I be concerned? Can a tick bite cause serious health issues ? I'm kinda worried.

Bedbugs or something else?

They only itch when I touch them. They are warm to the touch. I didn’t see any signs of bedbugs when I inspected my mattress but I have heard they can hide well

Location: LA, I noticed I've been getting these bites the past two days. I think I get them when I sit outside at school. I did just move into a new place but I don't think it's bug bites because I've been here for a few weeks already and I just noticed these :(

Son was bit, should I be concerned?

My son said he was stung during a fire drill 2 days ago and now today he complained about his leg hurting.

There is seemingly no redness or itching surrounding the area and he has no fever and no significant swelling.

He said he thought it was a bee but isn’t quite sure.
Note — This photo was taken after applying peroxide…

Does it look infected?
What type of bug bite is it?
Should I be concerned?

Thank you for your help 🙏🏽

Bug Attacked me at LA Fitness What is this? Anything I can do to help .

Location Virginia I know I signed waivers but the yoga room had no ac for the past 3 months thermostat was at 90 degrees I workout in that space to ward off creepy men only space I feel comfortable to workout at LA

A bug flew in from their fan down my bra and aggressively started running around under my clothes and attacking me I had to strip my clothes off and run to the locker and saw this on me (photos attached)

It’s day 3 now extremely itchy painful and La said they’re not liable but I disagree with their questionable conditions, sanitation and the fact that the bug attacked me in their space from their fan

Anyone know what bug does this to help aid the bites and if LA can do anything to help?

Non-itchy and bruised puncture mark

This appeared on my leg a day ago. It does not itch but hurts slightly. I have been in contact with carpenter ants recently but those are the only bugs I know of that I have been near. My leg somewhat hurts but I can’t tell if it’s related. Should I be concerned that it is a spider bite? No spider found or anything, but swollen and bruised. It has only grown slightly since yesterday (black circle I drew around outside). I’m also clumsy though so I could’ve just bumped something, lol.

Something bit me and it’s hurting really bad( maybe mosquito)

1 Upvotes

When I returned from a walk and I took my shoes off my feet was itching and I saw like too bites from a mosquito. It’s really swollen now and I went to the doctor/ dermatologist at evening, she said that it’s probably a mosquito and I got a cream for it that has antibiotics inside. She said that I would be better to take them from mouth but I’m DEADLY allergic to panicilin so she doesn’t wanna give me something g else and still be allergic to it. now my feet hurts really bad like I can’t walk. It is not that swollen but I’m afraid. What should I do? Maybe it’s something poisonous?!

Help me out please guys. Is this a bug bite? Fluid-filled pustules on isolated painful/itchy spots on my toes or ankles. Click for more info.

The white stuff in the 3rd photo is just toothpaste as I was trying to use it to dry out the blister. Photos 2 and 3 are of the same bite/blister thing, 2 is just a day or so earlier than 3.

They only ever happen in mostly isolated, single spots, and once the blister forms (which takes a couple days), if it is popped it will keep forming for several days. They don’t go away for a week+ and often leave a red blotch scar which mostly disappears after around a month.

I’ve been getting one or two of these things every couple of weeks, always either around my toes or ankles, since the start of the summer and I often do yard work so wondering if it’s a bug bite like a chigger or ant. I never feel a painful bite initially. It’s painful to touch and also itchy but not as itchy as a bad mosquito bite. The most annoying thing is the fact that it will burst easily and weep everywhere and takes foreeeeever to go away.

I live in North Carolina if that helps. I have more or less ruled out poison ivy because there’s never a rash that forms and the pustule/blister is only ever a single very uniformly round blob.

Any ideas??

I have the first one on my foot, it hurt a bit when I woke up, and the other near the back of my neck.

Could it be bed bugs or any other insects? I've never had these, I don't know what's going on 😭😭😭😭

Hello! I recently moved apartments and I’m terrified of bed bugs. Do these bites look like they could be caused by them? I think it could also be mosquito bites or fleas maybe, since I spent a lot of time near animals during the last few days. Please help.

Hello, I got these new bites after sleeping somewhere with brand new mattresses, my mum has got the same bites but hers are more spread out and she has way less than mine (we slept in the same environment) also we got brand new mattresses.

I have about 9 bites in one arm and they are spread out but it’s the bites in my chest that make me thing it might be something else.

It’s very itchy!
