Poor guy! It looks like he could have a skin infection and/or an allergic dermatitis. His skin is very red an inflamed so the best thing would be to have a vet examine him to determine the cause and treat. He may need an antibiotic, antihistamine, and a corticosteroid to help treat. If you can't afford to have him treated by a vet then you could bathe him with a dog shampoo, like EpiSoothe or HyLyt and see if that helps at all. Hope he gets better soon!
