Since we cant see the rash, its hard to tell what you are describing, but it sounds like it may be a rash caused by a deer tick bite, which puts you at risk of contracting Lyme Disease. If you were recently hiking, or out in a location of grasses and wildlife, you may have been bitten and you should get to a doctor and get tested immediately. Lyme Disease is a long-term chronic debilitating disease if not treated promptly. Below is a link to what a Lyme Disease rash looks like.
If on the other hand, you were not outdoors and bitten by a deer tick, then it may be as the person above said - it could be a spider bite. A brown recluse and a number of other spiders can cause a terrible reaction that results in dead tissue in the center with a large red ring around the wound. If its a bad wound, you should have the doctor treat it with prednisone and cortisone shots so you dont lose a big chunk of skin. Link to loads of pictures of those below.

It sounds like it is a tick chew ... could you talk approximately it a "bullseye" rash? yet ... i'm very allergic to insect bites, or perhaps a mosquito chew on me will become a extensive crimson circle, and it somewhat is often warm to touch. I continuously take Benedryl as quickly as I get bit by potential of something. i could propose that. look ahead to different signs and indicators of swelling, ex. throat. you are able to experience greater useful taking her to the ER, or calling your Dr. (confer with whomever is on-call and ask their opinion!). perfect needs!
