What Causes Painful Large Red Spot On Left Forearm?

I have an area on my left forearm that has tattoos on it. There is a red spot about the diameter of a golf ball and in the center it s swelled up with a hard ball in it. My tattoo is new but it s over a month old now. The swelling happened 3 days ago and is now painful to touch. I am thinking it could be a spider bite but I am not positive
