It looks like an allergic reaction or a bite. Is it only that one spot?

Try bathing it with boiled salty water (cooled of course!), dry it well & smear some sudocrem on it.

A small tin of sardines in oil a couple of times a week will help keep her skin in good condition & may help the patch to heal.

I must admit that I prefer salt water to hibiscrib - it's milder & less likely to cause any reactions.
