Hi caboose
Instead of me trying to guess, and you reply, I think this link might be the easist way to give you the solution to what I think you have. It pretty informative, and if its not what you have, then post back.

yeah i am pretty sure that that is what it is, i just hope i have the right type of medicane. when i added the melafix and did the water change it seemed to help, the sore looks like it is going away and the white fuzzy stuff is disapating as well. thanks fuzzy.......again. i am sure i will need your help again soon:D i am just glad it isn't HITH.
