Hello,
It can be a yeast infection or dermatophytosis. You can consult a doctor directly in order that you can get a better opinion. Also, if it is attached to the muscle or structures around she needs to do biopsy of it.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
