Answer 3

If you have a wire cage, be sure he didn't injure himself. It sounds like its possibly a tumor growth.. you should take him to an exotics vet.

Answer 4

He could have hurt himself on something in his cage.  He may also have been irritated and cleaned it too vigorously.  

Keep an eye on it.  If it doesn't improve in a few days take him to see a vet.
