Bite Of Which Insect Causes Itching And Hard Lumps Around It?

I have been bitten by an insect in Switzerland and was wondering if you could maybe tell me what you think might have bitten me. I ve been bitten multiple times on my legs, my bite are so itchy I have started to break the skin around the hard lumps. The lumps are sort if white with a red dot in the middle.

Infectious Diseases Specialist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that it could be any insect. But important is to mitigate its effect. I advice you to start with chlorpheniramine maleate, prednisolone, and cefixime for further treatment. Maintain local cleanliness. That's all nothing much needed in you.

I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
Infectious disease specialist.
Wish you a best health at health care magic.
