White Mole on Beard

Hello, I recently noticed this white mole on my beardie (see attached photo). He is 5 years old. Also, I've noticed a recent lost of appetite. Any suspicions on what this might be and how I should treat it?

Thank you so much!

Thanks so much for your response.

-It is not growing in size. whatever it is it is not easily removable. its pretty well stuck on there
-He's had it for about 2 months
-I'm using a Zoomed ReptiSun 10.0 UVB T5 HO Lamp, 24 Watts.
-I'm also using a 150 Watt Reptisun basking Lamp
-Both lamps go on during the day and both go off at night
-I have him placed next to a window so he gets outside light
-I also have posted this same topic on Beardeddragon.org as you suggested.
-I try to spray him with water once a day in the morning.

Thanks!

"I have him placed next to a window so he gets outside light" UVB rays will not penetrate the glass of the window or the glass tank. Putting it on top of the screen also blocks most of the UVB rays also. That is why it is recommended to have your UVB fixture inside the tank. As far as the white mole, I haven't a clue. I would recommend seeing a vet asap.
