Itchy Spots On Neck, Shoulder, Chest, Look Like Insect Bites. Cure For Spots?
I woke up with what appear to bug bites, about 1/2 an inch to an inch in diameter. they re quite itchy, and appear on the left side of neck and shoulder , and run down my chest slightly. I m not sure what they are as they just appeared. I ve check my bed for bugs, of any sort and found nothing. I share a bed with my spouse and she has no similar bites.

Hi xdaveyx ! Do spot is irregular margin with dark or black spot in middle, if yes it is cause by bug. Now if is itchy and burning use calamine lotion and if itch hard take allergy tab to make yourself relax , now go to skin specialist for further diagnose and treatment cause sometime ticks are borrow in skin need further checkup if symptoms persist for long time. Be healthy.
