What Causes Red, Bumpy Rashes On The Wrist And The Mouth Of A 8 Year Old?

My 8-yr-old daughter had a red, bumpy rash on her wrist, then this morning she woke up with the same sort of thing on her face below her mouth. She did go camping last weekend. She says it is itchy, but is trying not to touch it. Can you help me solve this?

General Surgeon 's  Response
HI. This must be a insect bite . Some insects do show late reactions or are activated only on exposure to certain allergens. Do not apply anything locally. Give her oral antihistamine like cetirizine 5 mg . She may need oral steroids under the guidance of the Doctor.
