Round, Red Bump With Tiny Red Bumps Around It Near The Armpit, Similar Eruption On Hand. What Is It?

On the back part of my shoulder near my armpit is a round red bump with tiny little red bumps around it in the shape of a circle and going down my arm are more tiny red bumps. I thought it was just a rash because it itches and I have the same kind of tiny red bumps on my hand , but because of the circle thing I m not sure. What is it?
