Blochy swollen cheek

[Amy406]

My Blochy has a swollen cheek and with some bruising inside her mouth. I don’t think she has gotten into it with another fish, could she have been stung by my Colorado, or would this be a disease? Any info helps

Looks like an abcess and infection.
is fish eating?
Breathing norrmal or labored ?
Anything in tank that can sting it? (lionfish, anemone, urchin ? )

Check on its eating, it’s not laboring, she’s not hiding from me, we do have a Colorado anemone

Is a "Colorado Anemone" a color variety of the bubble tip (Entacmaea sp.)? lf so, I wouldn't expect that to cause a lesion like this.
