Mystery Bumps
I Google'd my question and found that my symptoms sound like Herpes. Well, I'm 90% sure I don't have Herpes, so I'm asking what you guys think!
I went to visit my girlfriend this past weekend. Her roommate's boyfriend was there also. I noticed these small red bumps on his arms and legs, but I didn't think anything about it. They looked like small mosquito bites.
It's Thursday now, and my problem started yesterday. I noticed that there were these little bumps that itched like HELL on my side and on my wrists (both). I figured they were mosquito bites (they look like them, but are smaller, not as swollen), but they fucking disappear!! After about 12 hours, they're almost gone. Then 12 hours later they'll come back.
I had literally 30-50 bumps all over my body this morning. There are at least 20 on my arm! I ditched Economics to come ask about this. It's really starting to get me now. My entire fucking body itches like I have a thousand mosquito bites. My arm looks disgusting with so many bumps.
A lot of the bumps are on veins or near them. They seem to appear really quickly as well. Just in the past hour I've probably got 10 more. They disappear just as fast though, then come back later.
When I scratch them, they get as big as normal mosquito bites, but then go back down real small later on. They also don't itch after I scratch them for a minute (unlike mosquito bites).
Any idea what this is? It looks EXACTLY like what my girlfriend's roommate's boyfriend had, so I imagine it's some sort of airborne condition.
I originally thought it was just a bunch of mosquito bites, but now I know that I can't be bit THIS many fucking times in the mountains when it's this cold.
Any thoughts or comments appreciated. I don't wanna go to the Infirmary or doctor over something that's stupid. Maybe this is an allergic reaction?
