That is a common place for an infection since it is hard to clean and the moisture or eye drainage can get stuck in the fine hairs and trap bacteria. The best thing to do it keep it clean so it dry out. If it spreads or seems to bother him, then he will need to be seen by a vet. I would not put any medicine on it because if it gets in his eye it can cause an ulcer and be painful
