Pinguecula?

My dd is 21months, on Monday this just appeared, you can see a whitish lump then bloodshot around. Dr gave eye drops but today it seems to have gone brighter red.
I will go back if it's just as bad in the morning but I'm whittling about it and googling frigging all sorts. (Pics are when it first appeared)
Has anyone's child has this and it was just a scratch or something else non-permanent?

@plannedshock How did this resolve for you? Having a similar issue with my LO and not finding much information online. Thanks

It’s not pingeculae. Looks more like nodular episcleritis to me (which is self-limiting), but they’re may feel a bit gritty.
