Bug Bites On Breast And Under Arms, Tiny Black Dot In Centre, Itchy
My daughter has developed two areas of what look like bug bites. One area on her breat has four distinct bites and the area under her arm looks more likes indivdual pustules that are all connected. The thing that they have in common is that each one of them have a tiny black dot in the center. She has had mild itchiness on the area on the breast and pretty much none onthe spot on her underarm .
