My dog has an inflammation on his muzzle, right next to his nose. It's pink but not scabby or scaly or itchy.

I have a healthy 2 year old male Australian Shepherd. For the last three weeks he has had a pink inflammation on his muzzle, just on one side, right next to his nose, about the size of a quarter. It doesn%26#039;t seem to bother him--he doesn%26#039;t scratch it and it isn%26#039;t scabby or scaly. Sometimes it appears a bit brighter pink, then gets a little paler but never goes away entirely. The skin doesn%26#039;t seem swollen or bruised, just pink. The fine fur in that area seems to be thinning as compared with the fur on the other side of his nose. It almost looks like a patch of sunburn just in that one spot and initially I thought it would just go away on its own. It has not spread beyond that one small patch. He doesn%26#039;t seem bothered by it but it looks sore to me. I just don%26#039;t know what would sooth it--he would probably lick off any kind of medicated cream. Thank you.
