Suggest Remedies For Red And Oozing Bites On The Left Leg

I woke up with 3 bites on my left leg (1 on back calf, 2 on front). Bites are red, hot, with a welt underneath, approx 1 in redness. One is oozing and dries orange. They don t itch. I can t see any puncture marks. I feel fine but the swelling/welts are unusual for me. Do I need to see a doc or just keep an eye on it?
