From the photo this looks like either a fluid filled cyst or a mass. If it were an infection it would be painful and inflamed. I recommend a veterinary exam to feel this and perhaps insert a needle in it to look at the cells. From those they can tell you what it is and if it should be removed. Thanks for using PetCoach to help you care for Barkley.
