Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello. Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com. I have read your query. I understand your concern.
It may be due to trauma or may be part of allergic reaction as a result of some insect bite. Insect bite may elicit hypersensitivity reaction leading to abrupt onset of swelling over the site of bite or other than bite site also.
You should immediately take her to emergency room so that clinical examination can be done and relevant medications can be given immediately.
Take care.
