What Causes A Red And Sore Spot Below The Shoulder Blade?

I have a red rough sore spot ( slightly raised) that islocated just below my left shoulder blade above chest. It appeared about 4 or five days ago is about 1/2 inch in diameter and does not seem to be healing. Should I be concerned? I don't know where it came from...no injury. Seems like it might be infected as it stings when I touch it.
