    Bumps on skin
    Hello,

    I have these small, flesh colored itchy bumps on my skin and they are driving me crazy! I just noticed them about a couple of days ago when I when to sleep under the fan with no shirt on. The bumps are very small, about the size of a period or pencil point - they are barely noticeable but they itch like crazy. I have some on my arms, thighs, stomach, and hips. They are not in clusters; for example some I have 3 small bumps on my arms that are spaced apart. My mom thought maybe it was a heat rash but I think something probably bit me while I was sleeping. The itchiness is not going away. I put some Aveeno anti-itch cream on them - it has calamine lotion in it - and that is not working. Besides that I am 8 months pregnant so I was wondering if that had anything to do with it. It is definelty not mosiquito bites and the bumps are not red. I haven't done anything differently lately that I could recall, except go to sleep without a shirt on because I was hot so I'm thinking maybe some insect or bug bit me up while I was sleeping. I was also wondering if it could be bed bugs, but I checked my bed - none to be found. Then I was thinking scabies because I found some info about that online doing an internet search, then I started thinking maybe I was allergic to something but at 24 years old I have never been allergic to anything before so I'm not sure.


    Any suggestions on what this could be? Please respond, thanks!

    I started having allergies around the summer time about 2 years. Every summer I get these small bumps all over my arms and back. But I just took some allergy pills to help with the symptoms, and the bumps prescribed by my doctor. The bumps eventually went away. But just go to the doctor, and find out. It could be something different from allergies.

I have these bumps under the skin around my vagina. But you can only see them when you stretch the skin apart. Just wondering if I should be concerned or if that is normal. They don't hurt or anything and they are not causing any problems. I just recently noticed them when I was examining myself.
