It looks a secondary infection to an insect bite. You need immediate consultation and likely to be prescribed antibiotics and surgical drainage

Thanks for the query

It looks like u have an infection secondary to the bite. I recommend u see a surgeon for it. Take tab ornidazole with ofloxacin. Apply a local antiseptic like betadine and dress it.

Have a healthy life
