It could be an injury or a bacterial infection.
Could you post pics without the blues on?
My guess would be an injury/scratch. Watch very closely next few days to see if there are changes in shape or size as well as sign of tissue irritation / infection around it (redness, swelling or loss of scales).
If it’s an infection how do I go about handling this without a qt tank
It’s not very easy to do that. You could try feeding antibiotic soaked foods but in general that doesn’t always work with skin injuries.
What else do you have in tank? Corals? Rock? What size tank?

I've always dosed epsom salts for skin injuries when removing/catching the fish was impossible.
Def won’t be able to catch this fish. Always goes into hiding. How does one go about using epsom salt in the tank? Will it hurt my other fish, coral, and or inverts?
What about a fresh water dip? If I can get fish out
