Kim	Get it looked at as soon as you can. I don't know what it is, but if it's getting worse, it could be pretty serious. I can't tell if it has a white blister in the center, but if it does you should go to the emergency room as it could be the bite of a brown recluse spider.

wakkapakka69	it looks like a bug bite, like a bee or something like that, however, if you believe this is unusual, and have never experienced it before, it could be a skin problem, try aloe vera to soothe the itch/pain. and try to see a dermatologist, they usually prescribe some cream that usually works, if it worsens or doesn't get any better.

Chanel yo.	ok my boyfriend had this its called shingles and its only gunna spread more What is shingles? What causes shingles? Shingles is a skin rash caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. The virus responsible for these conditions is called the Varicella zoster virus (VZV). After an individual has chickenpox, this virus lives in the nervous system and is never fully cleared from the body. Under certain circumstances, such as emotional stress, immune deficiency (from AIDS or chemotherapy), or with cancer, the virus reactivates causing shingles. In most cases, however, a cause for the reactivation of the virus is never found. Anyone who has ever had chickenpox is at risk for the development of shingles, although it occurs most commonly in people over the age of 60. It has been estimated that up to 500,000 cases of shingles occur each year in the U.S. The herpes virus that causes shingles and chickenpox is not the same as the herpes virus that causes genital herpes (which can be sexually transmitted) and herpes mouth sores. Shingles is medically termed Herpes zoster. What are symptoms of shingles? How long does shingles last? Before a rash is visible, the patient may notice several days to a week of burning pain and sensitive skin. Before the rash is visible, it may be difficult to determine the cause of the often severe pain. Shingles start as small blisters on a red base, with new blisters continuing to form for three to five days. The blisters follow the path of individual nerves that comes out of the spinal cord (called a dermatomal pattern). The entire path of the nerve may be involved or there may be areas with blisters and areas without blisters. Generally, only one nerve level is involved. In a rare case, more than one nerve will be involved. Eventually, the blisters pop, and the area starts to ooze. The affected areas will then crust over and heal. The whole process may take three to four weeks from start to finish. On occasion, the pain will be present but the blisters may never appear. This can be a very confusing cause of local pain. Is shingles contagious? Yes, shingles is contagious. Shingles can be spread from an affected person to children or adults who have not had chickenpox. But instead of developing shingles, these people develop chickenpox. Once they have had chickenpox, people cannot catch shingles (or contract the virus) from someone else. Once infected, however, people have the potential to develop shingles later in life. Shingles is contagious to people that have not previously had chickenpox, as long as there are new blisters forming and old blisters healing. Once all of the blisters are crusted over, the virus can no longer be spread Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

.Music.	It looks like a rash, you might be allergic to something. Have you been scratching that spot a lot? But if it's only that one spot I wouldn't worry about it too much. If it still doesn't go away in about a week or so, I would go see a doctor. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Yes / No

Mommy of four	It could possibly be an allergic reaction to a shirt you were wearing, a specific soap you wash with, best to get it checked. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

angela	Well, I read ever answer posted before mine and I have made a few conclusions. It is probably either a bug bite, infection, virus caused rash, or something else. I dont think that you are going to be able to get a clear diagnosis on here. It is obviously not a STD or some of the other crazy things people have said. As for those who said "It definitly looks like...", your pictures are not going to give a definite answer. I recogmend using an over the conter itch cream, not itching, and covering it with a band aid. If you are worried or it persists for a long time go to a dermatoligist. Good Luck! I hope you get well soon! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
