Chiggers. The dermatologist said it was chiggers. He had me tell him what I did late last week
and I told him about digging up monkey grass and putting it in the truck. one
clod of grass at a time. Each clod was
heavy and I had to brace it against my body to lift up to the truck bed
level. He said that is where the
chiggers mostly jumped aboard, that and running up my arms. That is where most the red bumps are around
my pants line and my arms.
He also said
he would like to dispel the belief that chiggers burrow up in your skin. He said once they bite you they fall off.
I was going
to ask, "What does "dispel" mean?" but didn't.
