Hi... by what you say I feel that your daughter may be having pyoderma of this call which is bacterial infections of the skin and subcutaneous tissues.

Skin problems are best diagnosed and treated on seeing them directly. I suggest that you upload an image of the same on this website and get back to me. if it is pyoderma your daughter might require an antibiotic therapy which is a prescription drug.

Please revert back to me with images so that I can guide you better.
