It would be best to go see a doctor. I had a red spot on my butt and when it finally broke open I found out there was a sore building up under the skin, tunneling. So sore was about 3 cm deep, actually going sideways slightly, before it ever broke open. The doctor said sometimes you can tell there is a sore building up by pressing on the red spot to see if it feels squishy or soft. Antibiotics would only be good if there was an infection.
