I have no idea what these are does anyone know what ive been bitten by please ? I have two on the other side aswell .

1. Observe the Bite Characteristics
Take note of the following details:

Size: Are they small (like a pinprick) or larger (swollen, raised areas)?
Color: Is there redness, discoloration, or a noticeable center?
Shape: Do they look like a single puncture, a cluster, or a line?
Other Symptoms: Do they itch, hurt, or feel warm to the touch? Any associated swelling or rash?
2. Possible Causes
Based on the characteristics, here are some common bite possibilities:

Mosquitoes: Raised, red, and itchy welts that often appear in exposed areas.
Bed Bugs: Small, red bites in clusters or lines, typically on exposed skin while sleeping.
Fleas: Small, itchy bumps, often around the ankles or lower legs.
Spiders: Larger bites that may become red and swollen; some can develop a central blister or black spot.
Ticks: Small, firm bumps with possible central discoloration; check for the tick itself attached to your skin.
Ants: Small, itchy bites that may form blisters.
Mites/Chiggers: Tiny, red, itchy bumps, often around tight clothing areas.
Allergic Reactions: Can mimic bug bites but are often widespread.
3. Check Your Surroundings
Indoors: Look for signs of bed bugs, fleas, or spiders in your bedding, furniture, or carpets.
Outdoors: Consider if you’ve been in grassy, wooded, or sandy areas recently, where ticks, mosquitoes, or ants are common.
4. Monitor Symptoms
If you experience worsening symptoms like:

Severe swelling
Pain
Fever or chills
Difficulty breathing
Spreading rash or infection
Seek medical attention immediately.

5. Take Action
Clean the Area: Wash the bites with soap and water to prevent infection.
Relieve Symptoms: Apply anti-itch cream, hydrocortisone, or take an antihistamine for itching. Ice packs can help with swelling.
Prevent Further Bites: Wear protective clothing and use insect repellents.
If you can share more details or describe the bites further, I can try to narrow it down for you! Always consult a healthcare provider for serious concerns or unexplained reactions.
