This does not look good:

Already the tissue looks necrotic or scabby. It doesn't seem to be an abscess, although in this case we are hoping against hope that it is...we'll be calling the vet tomorrow for an appointment to get it checked out.
Also, she's dropping weight even though she eats like a fiend. (As I type, she's balanced on the edge of the food dish with her head inside, crunching away.)
Poor girl...this is just not fair.
