Sudden localized area right leg pain started two nights ago. no pain improvement and now redness over it. is this bad?

Leg pain/redness: You should see a doctor as soon as you can to make sure you don't have cellulitis which would require antibiotic treatment. It's also possible you had an insect bite with resultant redness. Regardless , get checked soon!
