Suggest Treatment For Red Itching Bump On Arm

Hi, I have a red mildly itchy bump on my arm, it was smaller than a dime last night and felt like a hard raised bump under the skin. Today it developed tiny tiny pimples in the middle and now the circle is only slightly raised and about a half dollar in size. Any ideas what this is? or how to treat?

Hello

Probably you have developed Tinea corporis a fungal infection.
I treat such cases with combination of oral and topical antifungal medication.
You can meet a doctor and get antifungal medication prescribed.
