Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi

Welcome to the HCM

In my opinion its a type of skin allergic reaction.You can try the following to relieve her:
- Give her anti-histaminic drops or syrup, such as, Chlorpheniramine,Phenargan or Benadryl. This works as anti allergic and also sedative to calm her down.
- Avoid allergens in future to prevent such reactions.
