Brief Answer:
Possible allergic skin reaction

Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am

I can certainly understand your concern.

I have worked through your attached query and images in detail.

These images and your suggested history probably reflect an ongoing allergic skin reaction secondary to a mosquito bite.

At this point all you require is an antiallergic medication like Levocetrizine with or without anti-inflammatory medications like prednisolone for 3 to 5 days to cause dramatic improvement in your symptoms.

Please check with your physician if he or she shares my opinion and if can prescribe these medications to you.

Post your further questions if any.
Thank you
