i recently started staying at my parents house as i am helping them clean and update the space. the particular room i am staying in had 60 year old carpeting and i have been tearing it up in sections as i box things up and get rid of furniture. i have sciatica, so i always sleep with a pillow between my knees and i ended up with 2 matching bug bites on my inner thighs within a few days of staying here. they looked almost like pimples, but never yielded any discharge, just felt like hard bumps and eventually went away after treatment of neosporin on medical tape (i am allergic to bandage adhesive).
now i have a cluster of similar bumps (which i cannot see directly) on the back of my neck at the hairline specific to the left side. my mother looked at them and described them to me and it sounds exactly like what i saw on my legs.
none of these bumps were ever itchy, just painful and sensitive. i plan on scheduling a doctors appointment this week as i am now very much concerned about the situation, but i was wondering if anyone has experienced this before and can offer some advice until i can see my doc. i want to know if there is anything i should ask or tell him. i will try to get someone to take a picture for me so i can upload it. i tried and all i could get was a blurry shot of neosporin-soaked hair with red spots underneath.
