I had a few itchy, red, bug-bite looking bumps around my ankles and over the next few days, they spread to my arms. could they be mites? i was weeding

Ankle bites: can cause a blistery appearing rash that is inflamed, feel itchy and burn. If there are other parts of the body affected, they may be bites as well. Getting an exam is your safest route in determining the diagnosis and treatment plan.

My daughter has red itchy bumps on her arms and feet. What could be the cause? She was diagnosed with a staph infection but the bumps persist. Bed bugs were mentioned but she is the only person being bitten. Could this be an allergic reaction to something
