Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is not possible to know without an examination. This may be due to a growth or perhaps an infection. An examination should help sort this out. I recommend you consider having him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Good luck and have a great day!
