    I would call his PCP or Dermatologist. It definitely does not sound like an STD.

      I checked Google. It sounds like bed bugs or maybe mites. Do you have pets? A rabbit maybe? We got mites once in my house. I would go ahead and strip you bedding and wash it in hot water with a mild, dye free detergent and spray the bed with mite/bed bug spray and let it dry. wink
