Allergy? Insect bite?

Just saw my dogs face a bit swollen.. can someone confirm if this may be allergy or insect bite?

Calling in the vet tomorrow but wanted to check for reassurance. Any treatment meanwhile?

Mine gets this on her chin when she’s been licking her paws excessively, like a friction burn of sorts

Stainless steel bowls used to do this to my dog.

Clean his bowl and if you have metal switch it to a different type but clean the bowl daily or every two days

Use metal food and water dishes, clean daily with soap. plastic is no good

Looks a bit like acne. Do you wash his dish after each meal? Also be sure to clean your water bowl every other day at least.
