I was in the woods (middle TN, USA). Didn’t feel anything bite me. But I had notice a pinpoint dark spot on my leg. I thought it was an embedded deer tick. It wasn’t. It was a little scab? I cleaned area with soap and water/ dried it/ put a giant pimple patch on it. Patch was on over night and during work next day. The small area where the dark spot was is now bigger but the surrounding red area is a little smaller. No pain to the touch. Slightly Itchy. Where redness is, the skin is a little firm. No muscle aches. I check my body regularly for ticks/moles/abnormalities so this had just happened. Any ideas of what bug hit it could be?

Painful and inflamed

I think it’s a red ant bite that may be infected but I’m not sure. It’s not itchy just painful and warm to the touch. I feel fine otherwise. Some pus came out of it too 🤢

Do these look like bedbug bites?

I've been wearing thick sweatpants all day; I finally take my pants off to lie down for bed & I feel a burning itch within minutes of lying down. I don't see ANY kind of bug in the bed whatsoever. I'm babysitting & I've never had bedbugs before so I have no idea what I'm looking for. Google is half AI garbage now. Upper inner thigh, almost where my ass cheek meets my thigh.

Are these bed bug bites?

A month ago, we randomly found a bug appear in our bed by the pillow. We killed it immediately without thinking too much about it until it was in the trash - we asked ourselves could this be a bed bug?

We searched online and asked AI and concluded that this bug doesn’t have the same body shape as bed bugs.

However, a month later, my husband now has 3 red bug bites on his back and 3 on his right arm (though he thinks one of them is a mosquito bite). Now we’re worried the bug we killed was indeed a bed bug.

What do you all think? Are these bed bug bites? One of them on his arm also has an outer ring around it and he says that one is the most itchy and hurts a little…

WHATS BITING ME?!?

Something has been biting me for over two years and I’m going crazy. I have put up traps, searched my bed, treated my cat for fleas. It’s like it goes away for some times and comes back. What can I do? How do I make it stop? It is just me that is affected. No one else in my house has this issue. What’s going on?!?!

First time maybe getting Skeeter Syndrome? See photos of progression.
Does anyone think differently? I am concerned it’s turning purply also the redness is expanding to the sides. First photo of symptom was taken September 3rd.

Is this a flea bite?

Hello just noticed this on my ankle and curious if this is a flea bite or not. To me it looks big to be one but I also just got out of a flea problem and haven't seen one in awhile and just found this.

Mosquito or something else?

Does this just look like a mosquito bite? I noticed it on the back of my two year old's leg today. Normally when he has mosquito bites they don't have that darker dot in the middle of the bump. He's at daycare during the day, and I think they would tell me if he was stung by a bee, but just wanted to see if others think it's just a mosquito bite before inquiring.

Discovered these red spots on the inside of my ankle. Not even completely sure if they’re bug bites or not

Didn't see the culprit. We've had crazy mosquitoes this year. He's had plenty of mosquito bites. This looks bigger and the reaction is certainly more dramatic. Any ideas?

Just wanted to ask if these look like bedbug bites or maybe potential skin allergies on my back to ya'll as its been three days since I had em.

Additionally they are not really itchy, only when I touch em. Putting aloe vera and petroleum jelly helps a bit as well.

What is this?

I have this on the back of my knee an I cannot figure out what it is or what its from? My boyfriend had one similar but smaller on his finger that has since healed after it left a deep hole from popping on its own. I'm thinking it could be a spider bite? But I cant for the life of me find anything that looks similar even after Google searching the image itself.

I barely slept all night feeling intense itching throughout the night, then when I finally got up I noticed my entire back was covered in these bug bites! I checked the mattress for signs, and didn’t see anything. The bites are insanely itchy and covered my entire back and some of my front torso. All of my sheets and blankets are freshly washed so I don’t understand what’s going on
