Strange mark on beardie toe

In the past few days I've noticed this spot on my beardies toe on her left front foot. I'm extremely worried because it looks infected or something to me. It looks red and irritated, but it doesn't *seem* to be causing her pain or discomfort from what I can tell. That leg also looks like it's about to shed, I don't know if that has anything to do with this mark. If anyone could tell me what this is and what I can do about as soon as possible I would appreciate it.

If you feed crickets or superworms, it's probably a bite/sting from one. Rinse it gently with water, dry it, and put a small dab of raw unpasteurized honey on it. If it seems to get worse, call your vet for further instruction.

Thank you so much. I do feed her supers, so I'm hoping you're right about it being a bite. Should I apply the honey daily until it goes away, or just once?
