What Could Be Itchy Bite On Arms? How To Cure It?
I am trying to find out what kind of bite I have on the back of my arm. It started out a couple days ago with 5 small bites in a circle about the size of a gulf ball. Now it is welted up, and completely red, about the size of a baseball now. It itches a lot, but I do get some burning with it from time to time.

Hi,
It seemsthat you got allergic rash after some insect bite.
Take antihistamine like Cetrizine or Benadryl for 2-3 days.
Apply antihistamine cream locally.
Ok and take care.
