Hi!

Please have it vet checked. It could be self-inflicted due to mange mites or the onset of ringworm but it could also be a burst cyst. Only a hands-on examination will tell.

All the best!
 
:agr: A vet trip is required in order to identify the cause of the sore and then to prescribe the correct treatment.
