What Causes Bite Marks On The Buttocks?
I have a few cluster bites on my buttocks and a some bites on my body and my boyfriends buttocks. Only occured when I started sleeping on my bosses bed in the basement. I checked the bed for signs of bed bugs and did not find any. The bites are inflamed and itch. Very concerned.

Hello,
As per my clinical experience, the itchy marks on buttocks indicate inflammatory response to possible bug bite most likely, it may be possible without obviously visible bugs on bed as happens in many cases.
Kindly get prescription of local steroid cream, oral antibiotics and anti histamine as Cetirizine or else from your doc apart from avoiding exposure to the same bed for definite period of time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
