Hi and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! From the picture it looks a bit like Jack may have had an allergic reaction to something. Seasonal allergies as well as regular environmental allergens can cause such effects. If the inflammation persists more than overnight or worsens, I would definitely consult your veterinarian for a full physical exam to rule out any other underlying issues. I hope this helps!
