What Causes Red Rashes On The Legs?

Hello I was sitting on my lounge last night and I felt a sting on the back of my leg as if something bit me. It has been stinging badly ever since and still is. There is a rash around the area of about 15 small red spots. Would this be just a mosquito or ant bite and how can I reduce the stinging sensation?
