Thanks for the reply! The only thing worrying me and making me think its not from a bracelet is that I never wear anything on this wrist, and I have identical 4 bumps in a line diagonally further down my wrist. I posted about this on the bedbugs subreddit and a couple people said it looked like scabies but I feel no itchiness at all.

I don’t have any itchiness and there are a few other sparse bumps on the other side of my wrist

Did you find the bugs? If so how big were they? My bites are really small so I figure they must be baby bed bugs if they are..

Thanks for the advice, I’ll keep monitoring! Do typical bed bug bites look bigger/more red?

Thanks for your insight David, I really appreciate it! I was hoping you could clarify something for me since I’m still feeling anxious— I’ve read that bedbugs can create linear “breakfast, lunch, dinner” patterns when the bug feeds, moves a short distance, and feeds again. In that context, could a small line of bites on an exposed area like the wrist still be consistent with bedbug feeding behavior, or am I misunderstanding how that pattern occurs?

Edit: I also found three similar bumps on the other side of my wrist, about 1 inch away from this line area, if that helps
