Hello Caring Husband

 

Please know that I am not a doctor either.  I am wondering about the fact that the two bumps are in the same place...just on either side of the waist line.  Could her clothing have produced any friction in those places and maybe caused a heat rash reaction?

 

It really could be anything from an allergic reaction to insect bites.  If you want to figure out what it is you will have to have her seen by a doctor or dermatologist. 

 

Let us know if you figure out what this is.  Thank you for your question.
