Some ideas: Such whelps are often seen with reactions to foods or can be seen in some illnesses. If it is from a food it would recur until the food has been completely digested, usually a few days. This public HT site does not allow us to see or comment on pictures. If the issue presists more than a few days or worsens have him seen.
