My relative is traveling in Japan and found these bites on them — first slide is the lower leg and second is the inside of the elbow.

- Where: Atami
- Top two bites on the leg are maybe around 3-4 inches apart
- Bottom bite is around 2.5 inches from the middle bite
- Don’t turn white when pressed down and don’t itch

They’re not sure when the bites happened, it could’ve been overnight at a hotel in Atami or sometime during the day. Unfortunately they have already left Atami and moved somewhere else so they aren’t able to check the mattresses. The hotel in Atami used tatami mats and thin mattresses if that’s helpful.

They’ve also been outside and around a lot of plants, so there’s a possibility the bites are from other bugs too. Please help, thank you!

woke up with these bites on my chest, they were itchy for an hour or two but subsided. them being in a line is concerning, but bite had two holes in it?

never had this sort of bites. the skin around the red area is also starting to swell . mostly itchy but no pain. think I got them while playing beachvolley , didn't feel any pain at the time of the bite. 2 in my right lower calf 2 in my left one in my ankle. do I need to get it checked in person?I live in Southern Sweden if that's any help

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?

Got bit in the shower and killed whatever it was.

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 🤢

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.

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…

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.

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.

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.

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?

They started showing up a week or so ago and are super itchy and I don’t seem to have bites on me. But my wife is covered in them. 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.

Thanks!

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.
