Hello,
Welcome to health care magic
Warm to touch,sore and mild swollen skin could be cellulitis or developing abscess or small boil but I will need to inspect the local area before coming at a possible conclusion.
So,it would be better if you can take the clinical picture of your left upper arm and upload it on the right side of query page which will be helpful for me to understand it.
I will go through them and will guide you accordingly.
Awaiting your response.
