How To Get Rid Of Bump On My Arm?
I have a bump on my arm that I noticed this afternoon. It has a red ring around it but it doesn t itch unless I purposely scratch it. It only hurts when I press it or rub it. I don t really go outside much but I do have pets. What could this be? Thank you.

Hello
Thanks for the query.
It might be an insect bite.
Apply an antibacterial cream like mupirocine twice daily for a week.
This should help you.
If possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis and better way of management.
Thanks.
