Hello everyone, so my hamster is just under 2 years as of when we had gotten him (unsure how long their held at the store before purchasing). But Im very worried of what my little guy has, Ive talked to a few friends/family who are pet vets, but they are unsure of what it could even be. The wound is more in the center in the shape of a circle, and he has a swollen ring surrounding the wound. The wound is healed but red rather than brown, such as a scab. For the mean-time I am putting Neosporin on the wound in hopes it'll heal. I have included a picture for reference, it is hard to get a good one since he's active (not in pain), and can be a bit aggressive when held.
