Question: Hello I have very small tiny pink raised bumps on my stomach they do not itch and they are hardly visible but when I rub my hand accross my stomach I can feel them what could it be? I have been tested for HIV three times since I have been exposed on sept 30 0000 and all results came back negative and the last time I was tested was on the 1st of December , can you please help me? Also my studio has had recent bed bug activity but we have sprayed my studio down.

The condition you are describing can be insect bite,purpura ,tinea corporis etc.

Also I would like to know-

Is there any pain/itching over the area?

Any other health issues/drugs or trauma?

Can u upload photos of the affected area?
