What Causes Red Spots On The Arm?

Hi - I am a 63 year old woman who has two spots on my left arm - one near shoulder has some blisters and one further down on arm has what looks like a small cluster of mosquito bites. They are red, not very itchy, but sore to touch. There is redness around them and I have had this for a few days. I am using a cream like Neosporin, but they don t look like they are changing.
