How To Treat An Itchy Lump On The Arm?

if I have a itchy, tingling, 1.5 inches diameter redness, numbing in the area only and hot bump on my left arm above the elbow for the past 2 days, is it possible that a mosquito bite is the cause? A few days ago I spent time outside for bbq and noticed mosquitos. Thx
