Clean his nose with a diluted peroxide solution (50/50) change his substrait to paper towels until its better. Don't get the solution in his nose/nostrils. Don't coat it with neosporin, just clean it daily. It may be he rubbed it getting the shed off, or could be he shed that part prematurely and it's sensitive new skin exposed, it could be he rubbed it too hard shedding, out could be he got bit by a feeder. Just treat it and update in a couple days, remove any rough objects from his viv and keep it clean. It'll look worse before it looks better so don't panic.

No doubt, juvies are all over the place. As long as it's small and youre cleaning it for the next 4-5 days he should be good. You changed to the paper towels so he's in a nice sanitary environment. Just be sure to remove any poos asap.
