Itchy Red Lump

Hello, for the past couple days I have noticed a lump on the front of my neck. Today it has gotten much bigger, turned red and is extremely itchy (I have so far resisted scratching it). I plan on heading to the doctors tommorrow but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to what it could potentially be - infection, allergic reaction, cancer, cyst etc. I have attached a photo. Any help is muchly appreciated. thanks

I have the exact same thing and I'm going to a dermatologist in a couple weeks since he's booked until then... I'm really worried as to what it can be... What is it? Is it bad?
