I have a spot on the right side of my chest that is as big as a silver dollar it didnt hurt for a couple months but now has turned red and is painful?

Skin needs a check!: Red and painful often indicates infection; certainly a quick change, maybe an abscess. See your doctor for an opinion and maybe a procedure such as drainage or biopsy.
