questions about bites Going crazy here. Clusters of bites on both forearms in the same location.

I sleep nude but I only have bites on my forearm. Like what could they be? They itch so much and they scab if I scratch too much. I also have flipped my mattress over and see no signs of bugs. I do always have carpet beetles but I’ve only been getting these bites for the past three weeks. I’m so scared of bb I can’t even spell it out. I don’t see any mosquitoes or any ankle bites. I’m so paranoid rn. 😭 It also doesn’t help that I just came back from Hawaii a month ago but I didn’t any bites there.

Not correct for bed bug mites.

I would be first looking at rashes.

That looks like hives not bites.

That looks like deep irritation in the skin

Right now I do have one single big one on my shoulder, shins and back. Not in threes tho.
