I have small pinkish bumps on my arm. Yesterday the spot on my arm got itchy. Afterawhile it died down and this morning to go itchy again. It died down but when I went to take my sweatshirt off my arm had a trail of them. They have sorta spread and my mom told me to not take my sweatshirt off. My mom though something could have bit me but what? There are so many bites that wouldnt it be impossible? HELP!

I get bumps like that on my arm too. They don't seem to be harmful, but they go away in time.

Could be chigger bites, if you live in North America, or maybe another bug. I wouldn't totally rule it out as a simple rash though.

Bed bugs? Who knows, do you have a picture?

Has your mum changed wash powder/detergent or soap recently? Could be a reaction to that

It could be many different things, talk to your families physician, they can suggest something, call to make an appointment and I am sure they will be able to help you figure it out.

BUT

If you experience any trouble breathing, swelling to the point where it becomes painful, profuse sweating and clamminess you NEED to go to the ER RIGHT AWAY!!!!

There could be several different possibilites. You could have gotten chigger/mosquito bites, you could have a rash, or your could be having an allergic reaction to detergent/material in your clothing. If it doesn't die down within a few days or gets alot worse/becomes painful/causes breathing trouble, don't hesitate to go to the doctor's office/ER and get it checked out.
