I have a redness on my arm that is itchy &hot& turned abit hard. i thought its from some insect bite but now that is hard im worried. wat should i do?

Evaluation: Because of the persistence of this lesion and now it's getting hard I would highly recommend that you see skin doctor to evaluate it. He could be something as simple as the plugged sebaceous cyst to a foreign body or even and embedded parasite. A proper evaluation and possible biopsy needs to be done
