It looks like a scratch or reaction to rubbing against something. i would place a cool compress on it to help with redness and inflammation. You can apply topical cortisone cream and try to discourage her from licking the area. You can give an over the counter antihistamine such as Benadryl to help with itching and redness. If it continues to bother her or gets larger, then i would have it checked by a vet.
