What Do Itchy Rashes On The Left Shoulder Blade Indicate?

I have a cluster of what looks like bug bites on my left shoulder blade. The affected area was really itchy 3 days ago, but at first these was no raised bumps or redness. Today, for the first time there ia a patch 2 inches in diameter and 10 or so raised bumps, it is a little uncomfortable and itchy. What might this be and do I need to see a doctor?

Hello,my name is Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi.
I understand your concern.
It will be better if you send a photo of the area for a better diagnosis.
It seems like an allergic reaction.
I suggest you to use:
