I have a painful red swollen streak from my armpit to below my elbow on my inner arm. it's slowly going down my arm.?

A picture=1000 words: Hard to tell here. It could be a superficial rash such as poison ivy, but if it's below the skin it could be a type of infection or inflammation such as cellulitis, or an infection along a vein or lymph channel. A photograph would certainly help.
