Hi, my daughter 2.5 years old has something on her neck. i'm not sure if it is a bee stinger stuck under the skin. tried a boil plaster to see if it would surface but nothing and it appears a little swollen?

Cellulitis: Regardless of what caused it, if her skin is red, swollen and hot to the touch, it may be infected. Treatment of cellulitis involves prescription antibiotics and careful monitoring to avoid worsening infection. Consult a Dr via video or in person for an examination diagnosis and treatment.
