Nothing need to be done as of now

Detailed Answer:
Hi..... nothing needs to be done right now as this is not bothering him.

But if he develops fever or the lesion is increasing or develops redness of the surrounding skin, then I suggest you get back to me with fresh images or approach your local pediatrician.
