Large Bump, Skin Rash Causing Itching During Camping. What Could Have Caused This?

I recently was camping, and I walked in the woods a few times. (wisconsin) There was also an active hive of bees underground by my camp site too. After a day i found a large bump with a black bump. It itches periodically and recently seemed to have spread a rash. Very itchy. What is this? is this a rash from a plant, bug bite, or a bee sting?
