I have a lump that showed up on my back under the skin 2 days ago and i don't know if it's a spider bite or a cyst. help?

Perhaps: Cysts don't usually unless if they get infected as for spider but usually that's inflamed and red or it could be a spontaneous bacterial abscess generally those are painful with redness around them
