What Do The Bug-like Red Marks Under The Arms Indicate?
I have two little red marks like a bug bite under my arm. It is red and puffy and ichy. I am not sure when or where I got it. A few days later I received what I thought was a bee sting in the garden. It is showing the same as the first one. What could it be?

Hello
While these could be insect bites, they could also be a case of allergic dermatitis
Either case isn't anything too serious and you can try oral benadryl and topical Caladryl lotion for now. If they don't disappear in a few days, have a doctor take a look at them
