Help!!

A few days ago my boyfriend and I noticed what looked like an open wound on our cleaner catfish's right fin. Our first assumption was that some of our other fish (two redtail sharks, 2 angel fish) might have been nipping at her so we gave them a little more food at each feeding. The "wound" (raw white/pinkish area) has now spread over her back and down towards her tail. Is there a common fix for this? Or does this sound/look like some sort of illness or infection? Any advice or input that anyone could give would be greatly appreciated
