Most likely an injury from another fish or ornament just make sure you keep water quality good with water changes and temps high 29degrees so infections don't occur

Thanks MoneyTank.

But I see them in both of my giant Gourami and koi. Also some green thread like small thing attached to that red swollen area. What is that? Any suggestions. Please reply

Thanks

Possibly anchor worms though the pic is a bit blurry.

Would suggest pulling it off. Take a good pic of it. Could be anchor worm.

I really feel feared to pull it off. If anything happens to that fish :( for now it's eating foods eagerly. So can I wait two more days. ? Is that advisable? Can I wait and see if it cures naturally?
