Bumps on the skin are commonly referred to as "welts." Welts are raised, swollen areas that can occur due to various causes, such as allergic reactions, insect bites, or skin conditions. The term "whelp" typically refers to a young dog or the act of giving birth in animals, rather than to skin bumps.
