Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. What you are seeing could be an infection / abscess. It could also be puppy strangles if this is a puppy. The puppy likely needs veterinary care to receive the most appropriate treatment. Depending on what it is, he may need a course of an antibiotic with or without steroids. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
