I noticed a small bump on my cat Captain Jack's chin. I assume it might be acne, but I am not sure.
It feels like a small bump with a bit of scabbing. He doesn't seem too worried about it, but knowing I worry so much -- I would like a second opinion.
I cannot afford a vet at this moment, but I will take him if need be.

Some basic info:
He is 4 years old. He has a stainless steel bowl, plastic plate, and sometimes eats out of a plastic bowl (He has for 2 days now) in which he eats wet food. He has a habit of licking things or getting into things he shouldn't, but I haven't noticed him get into anything recently other than licking his brothers puke a day ago. (Nasty I know!) No history of cancer or related issues. His teeth look fine and his gums are nice and pink.
I just noticed the bump today and have not done anything to it other than observe. I was wondering what the best course of action is. This is the best photo I could get while gently holding his head back.
