Please Help Me Identify This Rash/Mark/Bite?

About two days ago I had a small rash appear on my leg (shin area).  It reminds me almost of a hemangioma birthmark because of the cherry like color and pattern. Underneath at the top there is also a bump; it doesn't itch but it is uncomfortable to touch around the bump area.  There is also one small red dot that is above the affected area and one small dot that appeared on the top of my foot. The "rash" is about 1/2 an inch to 3/4 of an inch.  I have looked online for any possibility of what it could be and I have had no such luck.
