Brief Answer:
insect bite reaction.Hydrocortisone cream.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.I can understand Your concern.

In my opinion bumps are probably due to some insect bite.It is inflammatory response of body to insect bites leading to such bumps.

Most of times it will resolve soon without any treatment.For faster results you can apply hydrocortisone cream two to three times daily.This is available over counters.

I hope this will help you.In case of any concern i will be happy to help you.Take care.
