i have a bunch of unknown bug bites on my legs that i’ve been scratching, including a couple bites under the back of my knee (area in the image). also currently i have a small scalp infection that resulted in swollen lymph nodes, i don’t really think that has anything to do with this but i’m mentioning it just in case!

anyways, i’m assuming this is from scratching the area? i’m just a little worried because i’ve always gotten bug bites and always scratched them but i’ve never seen something like this. i’ve tried googling but i can’t really find an image that looks like this, maybe i’m not using the right words lol

if it’s nothing to worry about, is there anything i can do to make it go away? (not scratching it, i assume)
