Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is unfortunately difficult to assess without being able to see and examine the lesion. This may be due to an infection, inflammation, among other possibilities. I recommend that you have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They would be able to actually look at the lesion and determine what would be best to treat this with. Best of luck!
