Q: Bumps that don't cause any irritation but won't go away.

Ok, in June I went on a hike in a wooded area. Next day found this echelon shaped pattern of light pink but painless and non-itchy bumps. I figured it was a bug bite or something I rubbed up against irritated me. Thing is its now August and they haven't changed size, shape, color, or anything. They still don't itch and they still don't hurt but the fact that they haven't healed with what's getting me. Thoughts, suggestions? Thank you.

Hi there

 

This would concern me too.  I think it is time to see your doctor or dermatologist.  It really could be anything but I would be concerned about tick borne illnesses.  Have you had any other symptoms?

 

Please do check with your doctor. 

 

Let us know what your doctor says if you can.  Thank you for your question.
