Suggest Remedy For Burning Red Spots In The Eye

Good evening. I am a 52 year old female with RA and am taking Humira. So happens today I had my regular injection. Late afternoon I noticed a bright red spot next to my eye about the size of a pencil eraser. I didn't notice any other sypmtom. Now this evening it feels like a minor burning and itching sensation. Is this a side effect? I wear glasses and the area is covered by glasses so I no I didn't bump the skin there. It is really a bright cranberry red.
