By all means - get your but to a doctor. At the very least, they can test you for Lyme's Disease. If you can feel a lump where the center is, then it is probably an insect bite, not a tick bite. My daughter had a nasty ring and red swelling/itching on her leg. The doctor told me that if a center is felt, then it isn't a tick bite.
