Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

Most likely it's from either bed bugs or insect bites. I suggest you to use a moderately potent topical steroid cream e.g. either Mometasone Furoate or Triamcinolone Acetonide, twice daily for a week.

In addition, I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g tab Cetrizine once a day for symptomatic relief from itching.

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