Thank you for submitting your question regarding Chotu. You can start by bathing him with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner such as an oatmeal or fatty acid based formula. This can moisturize and soothe the skin. If this does not seem to help, then I recommend that he sees his veterinarian. This will ensure he receives medication if needed to heal this skin. I hope this information helps!
