Hi @Rof , and welcome to the forum.
We can't give medical advise, nor diagnose anything on this forum.
If she's worried I'd advise her to contact her GP.

Rof - it is not appropriate for any of us to speculate what might be going on. It could be something or nothing, and telling you something to make you feel better isn't necessarily in your best interests.

If you are concerned, please contact your medical team. Wherever you are, I'm sure there are emergency services, if your are very concerned.

Nobody here is here in the capacity of a health are professional. Giving medical advice is strictly against our rules.

You say you need calming until tomorrow, and your title says 'Urgent'.
Can you tell us what it is that has you so worried that you're afraid it can't wait until the morning?
Is this your leg or someone elses?

Please don't panic, @Rof .
I'm not a doctor but if it was my mother's leg I'd think she had a funny rash from a mosquito bite or nettles or such. Whatever it is, why not relax and see how it looks in the morning? That seems early enough to decide if she wants to see a doctor in the weekend or rather wait till monday.

Sleep well!

It’s really nice talk from you.
It’s been for two days and she didn’t tell me until now!
I wish it’s superficial and go away by itself.
Many thanks for you, whatever it is; you really helped

Most insect bites, which that looks like to me, disappear on their own after a couple of days if you do not scratch them.

Thanks a lot for your nice replies.
We visited the skin doctor.
He diagnosed her either a mosquito bite or because of rising cumulative diabetes.
So he wrote a cream and anti biotechs to be used for 3 weeks wishing it going to go by itself.
Today she made the test and it’s 6.9.
She is very happy and positive.
I can’t stop thanking Allah for this great help.
NB: she suffered from such problem before and she needed an operation.
