Question matted fur?

hi everyone, i know it's been awhile since i last posted- a lot of stuff has happened that made getting online hard! since i last posted we have a new little baby boy, a long haired syrian. he's about 5 months old. i have a small concern.

i'm not sure if i'm being overly paranoid, but i thought it was better to play it safe and ask if anyone had any input. recently the fur on the back of his head/neck has seemed sweaty and almost matted? it doesn't have knots in it and it's not particularly long, so i don't think it's just getting tangled due to length. it looks almost patchy and damp. he acts perfectly healthy otherwise, if a bit nervous/jumpy.

i tried to get some pictures but he does not like to sit still. any idea on what's up and/or if it's normal? thanks!
