I apologize for the grainy photos! This is one of 12 damsels currently in my QT tank and I’m not sure if this is uronema or just an injury/injury and bacterial infection and I don’t know the course of treatment to take. My QT tank is 40 gallons and currently housing 7 yellowtail damsels, 5 azure damsels, a coral rabbitfish (3 inch), and dussemeri tang (4 inch)

Here are some slightly clearer photos. It seems to be the only one effected. There is some slight bickering between the damsels (expected) but no constant chasing. The tang and rabbitfish are docile and slightly shy, the wrasse does not attack anyone either.

Not my photo! But this is very similar to what it looks like on my fish. Just on my fish it is on the side of the body.
 
Looks bacterial. Look up Uronema and Chromis. Typically looks like a red elongated flesh sore. This doesn't look like that.

This is what I’m hoping for, but I also worry this could be the early signs of Uronema after watching humblefish’s video on it
