My chick, sunflower has a swollen butt and feathers are missing around her butt. I cleaned her butt yesterday, but now it looks worse!!!

I'm sorry the picture is blurry but I am so worried.
PLEASE HELP

I thought pasty butt too, but I'm no expert. Clean the area and the treatment is olive/ veg oil applied to the vent. I hope that's not blood... @casportpony is a go to person for these matters.
 
She doesn't like me touching it and when I do she squeals like she is in pain. I got more pictures and it just looks horrible! She also picks at it.

I just cleaned it off and it looks much better. I can't go out and get pictures right now, but I will in the morning. All the chicks are under Raven and sleeping and everything seems fine.
