Is my Rainfords Goby sick?

HI everyone, I need some help with my Rainfords Goby. Last week I noticed that there was a purple-ish color under the skin at the left gill. Today I took a closer look and it looks like there is a small bump forming in the same area. Can anyone give me some advice on what to make of this?

See pic below.

Thanks for any help I can get

If you go on this site and scroll down does it look like the photo of vibrio?

Oh no. If that's what it is, it is pretty sick. Sorry to hear that.

Thanks guys I am not sure if it is vibio. It isnt as severe as the pictures and description but it can be a possibility. I will get a QT set up tonight and do a FW dip on him and see if that helps.
