Bites from? I'm not even sure you can identify what kind of bug is biting me but it is driving me mad and one in particular is so painful it feels bruised and is rock solid, the surrounding skin is just hard. I have never reacted like this to a bite. Anyone experiencing/experienced similar? I can attach a photo

Mosquitoes do that to me too. Then they bruise after the swelling goes down. I've had a horse fly bite that looked the same too.

Looks like me after any mosquito bite. Antihistamine and try not to touch it!

I generally react to bites in this way. Lots of anti-histamine is the only thing I can do to help reduce them.
