It is probably infected, take him/her to a vet and he/she should be fine.

Hope this helps James

Have you got a photo of it?

Sounds like a cut that has been infected and now you can see the necrotic tissue.
Photo would help.

Take the poor guy to the vet asap, probably is an infection from a cut or something but most likely may need antibiotics. Don't mess around just take it to the vets please.
