What Is The Itching And Bumps On The Buttocks After Getting Bit By Mosquitoes?

I was outside last night and i was getting bit by mosquitos like crazy. When i went back inside i itched everywhere. So i took a shower i then started itching my butt cheek and it kinda hurt so i looked at it and there was a red like circle on my butt. Its doesnt look like ringworm. But it has bumps and itches if i touch it.

Hi
According to your complaints you seem to have developed insect bite hypersensitivity reaction.
I would recommend you to apply cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet Cetrizine 10 mg once or twice daily depending on the intensity of itching for 5-7 days.
