This is not stuck shed, it's a common and harmless uneven shed. I see it all the time on my dragons as well as on the forums. They can be a very slightly uncomfortable when shedding but they are not in pain, just cranky. He's fine !

 

[MWS]

He is not a cranky temperament and you can touch any other part of his body no problem, but touching the area lightly he jolts and moves away also its very wrinkly in that area.
Would the best approach be to bathe him for a longer period and try and use a very soft toothbrush?

 

[AHBD]

You can spritz him in his tank a couple times a day, that can help loosen it . A little aloe vera [ plain with nothing added ] can help as well but there's never really a need for long soaks or toothbrush. A short soak is fine, long soaks are not needed though.
