Hi,

Based on your explanation this may be due to any insect bite or allergic rash. Just apply cold compression and local Povodine iodine to it. This will disappear.

If the size increases or any other associated symptoms develops kindly get back with good quality photo for further discussion on its management.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
