Is it bed bug bites on my face or pimples?
Do bed bug bite marks resemble acne?
Yes, they certainly could resemble each other and this is the reason why bed bug bite marks are often mistaken for acne. Many people are even known to have spent hundreds of Naira on acne creams and face washes only to find out much later that they have a bed bug infestation and not acne. In this guide, we will study the main differences between bed bug bite vs. pimple marks and also find out what bed bug bites look like at first if you happen to get bitten.
Bed bug bite vs. pimple: Main differences
Let us discuss common symptoms of bed bug bites followed by the symptoms of acne.
Symptoms of bed bug bites on face
Bed bug bite marks are usually seen on face, arms, chest, upper back, neck etc. Mild bed bug bites have following clinical signs and symptoms:
* Often the bite goes unnoticed. Some people may be immune to the bed bug's saliva as a result of which they do not show any symptoms despite getting bit.
* Bites on the face and arms are typically flat, round and itchy.
* They may be red.
* In some people, the bites cause an allergic reaction leading to itchy, red welts
* Highly sensitive people might develop pus filled blisters that could be hard and lumpy at first. Later the lump develops a small opening with pus underneath.
Symptoms of pimples
Pimples are typically present on the face on the chin area, cheeks, or forehead. Some teenagers and adults are also known to develop pimples on their neck and back. Pimples and acne marks may also be seen on buttocks.
* People with pimples usually tend to have whiteheads and blackheads as well, usually on the nose, cheeks and chin region.
* In case of cystic acne, the pimples may be hard and painful. In this regard, they do resemble bed bug bites.
* In severe acne, several small clusters of pimples may be present in a single area.
* In majority of people, pimples develop pus and squeezing these not only spreads the infection to other healthy parts of the skin but also leads to permanent scars and acne marks.
Can you pop and squeeze bed bug bites?
It is very tempting to squeeze both bed bug bites and pimples especially when they are filled with pus and are present on the face. Both acne and bed bug bites look ugly and could shatter one's confidence. However, it is very important not to squeeze the bites and especially avoid touching one's acne. This is because; when you touch either bed bug bite marks or acne with unclean hands, you are transmitting bacteria to the already fragile skin which could cause secondary skin infections.
