That looks like a skin infection - could be due to an injury. I suggest you use this product on him but you can also try Neosporin or other topical antibiotic cream. If it does not seem to be improving after 5-7 days of treatment then you should have your vet check this out. ( https://www.allivet.com/p-3356-vetasan-ointment.aspx )
