What is this on my bearded dragon?

My partner thinks it just looks like that because he hasn't shed there however it looks bigger than it is on the other side so I am very confused. We are taking him to the vet next Friday for something else however is this cause of concern as well??​

I thought maybe food they will hold food in their beards but w/ it being on one side I am not sure - how long has it been there? I am gonna have some others take a look and see that they think?

Hello,

Is that area soft or hard to the touch? It isn't shed, but could be a cyst, or an abscess. Has he fallen
off of something & hurt his beard by landing on it?

Ok well keep an eye on it and see if it continues to get bigger

Hello,

I agree, just keep a close eye on the area, to be sure that it doesn't get larger in size. Maybe he hit
his beard & injured it somehow which can cause soft tissue swelling, etc.
