To be mildly concerned about this rash / bite

My daughter (9) has a bite or rash on her knee that has been there for about two weeks and appears to be getting worse not better. It started off looking like a single red spot but has developed into something bigger. It’s not sore but is very itchy. It’s not hot around the edges but the skin in the centre is yellow-ish with the red raised section around the edges. Pharmacist has given antihistamine and itch cream. Any ideas what it could be?

Thank you, Mumsnet! Assumed it was a bite but just googled and definitely looks like it. Surprised the pharmacist didn’t mention that. Off to find some anti-fungal cream…

did you ever get to the bottom of this? @ThirtySomeThin my daughter has the exact same, I could have written your post
