Very recently, I woke up and noticed about 6 bumps on the inside of my arm. They were very sore to touch, red, and swollen. It looked like I was stung by bees or had some sort of bug bite. I didn’t know what it was, but they all had a very, very small, what appeared to be a white head on top. I pinched them with tweezers and a very small amount of pus came out. I kept watching it and they stopped hurting, the redness and swelling went away, and I forgot they were there. You can still see them barely, but they don’t hurt and seemed to be almost healed. Today when I got up for work, I noticed 2 more new ones on my arm, 1 on the other arm, 2 on the back of my thigh, and 3 in between my thigh and my buttox. They all are very red, sore, and have that small white head on them. I will go to the doctors eventually, but if there’s a way I can save money and find something to take this away. Some of my theories of what they could be or where they could come from are…
1. I thought they could be bed bugs, so I stripped my bed, checked my mattress, box spring, sheets, etc and didn’t find anything.
2. I work in a water park. I’m not actually in the water, but I do work serving food back and fourth between the kitchen and outdoor cabanas. Could it be from being hot and sweaty all day?
3. I haven’t switched lotions, perfumes, laundry detergents, etc. So it isn’t that
If you are going to comment telling me to go to the doctor, please do not waste your time. When I get a little more money I will, but what could cause a red, sore, zit looking thing on multiple areas of my skin with a small white head?
