Question:
On Tuesday morning, I woke up with 3 small light pink bumps near my knee. They itched pretty bad and with each day that went by, the 3 small light pink bumps got a little bigger (dime-sized) and turned a purple color. Yesterday, I went to the hospital, because I was worried that they still hadn't gone away yet. The DR there thought they might have been some kind of spider bite, but couldn't confirm it. He did a blood test and everything was fine. Yesterday evening I got 2 more small pink bumps on my thigh. I'm getting worried. I was thinking of going to another DR tomorrow. Should I go to a regular DR or a DERM or another kind of DR? Has anyone experienced this before and might know what it is? (I haven't done anything differently and do not own any pets) Thanks so much, I appreciate it.
Answers:
It could be any number of things, bed bugs, Spiders, fleas, mites, ticks, mosquitoes or even lice can also cause itchy bites.
Since it involves the skin, i would go to a Dermatologist to see what they think could be causing the problem. They have probably seen more of this than an ER or Family Dr.
do you think this could be happening while you sleep? aside from going to a dermatologist, change your sheets, flip your mattress, or...just sleep elsewhere for a night or two and see if you dont get any more "bites"
