Suggest Remedy For Itchy Lumps

Hi,I was bitten by something on my back. I never noticed the bite itself until that night when I felt a sore spot on my back. When I touched my back I found a hard sore lump (no itchiness) with redness and what appears to be a single puncture mark. Do I need to see my doctor? I am 50 years old and healthy otherwise. Any idea what could have bit me?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having some poisonous insect bite producing hard sore lump.
Nothing to worry.
Take antihistamine medicine like Cetrizine or Benadryl for 2-3 days and it will be subsided.
Apply triple action cream or Calamine lotion locally.
Ok and take care.
