I've noticed that my rooster has had this little bump on his comb and I can't tell whether if it is fowl pox, avian pox, or any possible disease. Also he is about 3-4 months old. Please help

Welcome to BYC.
It looks like a peck mark to me.
Thank you! Glad to be part of BYC!
It can't be, it's the only rooster I have and I mean it's possible it can be from a spider or mosquitobut I can't be fully sure.
Is he with any other chickens (pullets/girls)?
If he is,they will most certainly peck/pick at his comb. It doesn't matter what gender the chicken is, they all are susceptible for peck marks.
OK, so he's the only chicken you haveNo, he is the only chicken/hen/rooster I have so there is no possible way of it being a peck mark.but thank you for the info
