Possible allergic reaction to bug bite

Hi my 16 month old woke up yesterday with a tiny little bit next to her lip. Today the bite is bigger and has a red line coming off it. Is this a reaction to the bug bite? Or an infection? Should I ring 111?

Yes I'd ring - is it definitely a bug bite?

I don't know if it's definitely a big bite but not sure what else it could be

I'd call them for advice.

Definitely ring, it may be tracking - ask if you can take her to an out of hours doctor
