Sometimes ordinary skin sensations become much more noticeable when we’re stressed, exhausted, or intensely focused on them.
So before throwing away your mattress or reaching for insect spray, take a breath and check what’s actually happening.

And if the sensation persists or comes with other symptoms, don’t ignore it—talk to a healthcare professional.
