Abscess: Any bug bite or similar injury to the skin surface of any part of the body may be invaded by germs & produce an abscess. This will often not heal until it is treated with medication and or drained by the doc. I would have it seen for a definite diagnosis.

Abcess: She needs to see a doctor immediately. She could have a serious infection.
