HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be allergic reaction in pediatric age group most of the time this is self limiting and may not need any treatment, if condition does not come around then it can be managed with oral "Diphenhydramine suspension or syrup as well as local application, and this is nothing to worry, hope this helps, take care and have a nice day.
