Rosey Barb Trouble: Strange Bump On Head

[zeke the black ghost knife]

when i was feeding zeke i noticed that one of my rosey barbs had a strange bump next to its head. it doesnt really look like a wound from another fish, buts its really strange. he seems ok, but he swims a little slower, ect. can someone please help me with this? i dont want to lose anymore roseys.

do you think that a large parasite dug under its skin??

ill try to get some pictures. well, when i first bought my roseys ie had my aquarium for like around 2 or 3 months. at first they were fine but then they started biting the dust. i didnt know what happened. only one rosey barb survived but now that same rosey barb has a wierd bump on his/her head.
