I am taking care of my daughter's bearded dragon while she is away for the week. He developed this red bump. Is there anything I should do for him?

Hm, that looks a little painful for him!
Are you only feeding the food mix to him, or, is he getting any type of insects to eat also?
You could try some raw, unpasteurized honey on that area, to see if it takes down any of
the swelling & inflammation. It is something that just cropped up suddenly?
I would say that if it doesn't go down soon, that you should get him into the vet for them to
do a biopsy of the tissue to be sure it doesn't get out of control & isn't cancerous.
Does it seem to be bothering him?
