Red wound on my golden comet goldfish

[Aidenfadil]

I just noticed on my goldfishes mouth there is a red cut. Does anyone know if it’s infected or if it’s just a wound Or if I can add melafix to heal it? Thanks.

I would try small frequent water changes and maybe some aquarium salt before melafix. Essential oils work on fish about like they do on humans...not really.

It’s started to spread to its body what should I do?

May be signs of sort of infection at this point. Best thing would be to figure out just what and reccomended treatments for it.
