Hi,thanks for query.I do not see any reason for worry.They could be areas of hypo pigmentation in that part.Please keep a watch on them,if the increase in size or number,you need to see a dermatologist.Other wise do not worry.This can happen at times after minor trauma or otherwise.
wishing her good health.

u need not to worry but need to take care of her skin
apply good moisturizer twice a day
it may be due to dry skin ,p.versocolr ,dermatitis ,p.alba ,etc
better to consult dermatologist once .
she may need to apply mild steroid cream .
give her more water and green veg .
wear her full cloths and avoid sun light.
