What is this pink, hairless, tough spot on my dog's muzzle?

Question

My dog has a spot on his muzzle that started as a sore and now has healed to a bright pink, hairless, tough spot on his muzzle. He has flea allergy dermatitis. I want to make sure I shouldn’t be worried? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | neutered | 2 years and 9 months old | 115 lbs

I'm so sorry but it is very difficult for us to give advice without seeing this spot. Can you post again with some photos? This spot could be anything from ringworm, a bacterial or yeast infection, an autoimmune disease, solar dermatitis, etc. If we could see some photos we can help you better. Thanks.
