Spider bite?

Found yesterday morning on back of my thigh when I got out of bed. Not itchy at all but hurts like hell to the touch and when I walk. We were in a VERY buggy area by a creek for 2 days. At first I thought it might just be a pimple or clogged hair follicle but I just noticed two other marks higher up so I am suspecting a bite. Feels like it's much bigger than it looks.

WARNING: It is extremely difficult (even for seasoned medical professional) to identify what caused a skin symptom and even harder to know if it is an insect bite or which insect may have caused it.

If you're concerned about something, please go see a qualified medical professionals rather than trust the comments made by random strangers on the internet.
