She needs to really see her doctor, this does not sound like an endocrine problem, it may just be from irritation of the skin itself but in an older woman this is concerning. So be it rare in a child have her seen, first start with her pediatrician, they will want to examine it, maybe it is a simple as a skin infection, they may want to get an ultrasound of the area and if needed a pediatric surgeon is who handles this. Lets be sure that there is nothing else wrong
