The picture is very blurry so it is hard to see if it is a wound or a growth. I would keep the area clean and dry and keep Fleki from pawing at it with an Elizabethan (cone) collar. If the wound does not heal, looks worse, is hot to the touch or painful, or oozes debris, or there is a growth that grows in size, it is best to have your vet look in person so it can be treated.
