How Can Itchy Rashes On The Arms And Legs Be Treated?

ive been getting mysterious bug bites for quite a long time considering that my legs and arms are covered with bites .. i even have some on my waist, just basically over my whole body. the bites tend to get itchy and i scratch them alot to the point where they start to form scabs. the bites kind of look like bruises after a while but still havent gone away. i checked for bed bugs and there was none. i feel nothing biting me at night, but i remember scratching my arm at night and 3 hive looking bites appeared and thats when i started to get more and more as days went on. ive switched beds with someone but they havent got any bites while sleeping on my bed but i still got bites from sleeping on theirs. im not allergic to anything, but i have eczema on my feet and hands if that counts. i dont take any medication. im going insane i keep getting more and more bites each day and i dont feel anything am i having an alergic reaction ? at first i thought it was hives but then im not allergic to anything. my mom says its bug bites and will not drive me to the doctor .. WHATS HAPPENING

Hi,

Please I need to see some attached picture of these elements in order to define better the diagnosis. Because you have a history of eczema, I think it is better to meet a dermatologist for this recent situation.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
