I have 5 hens that are 1 year old and a rooster that is 8 months old. The chickens keep pecking his comb. It’s been minor up until last night. I found him all bloody and his eye is swollen.
what can I put on it to help heal?

Do you have any blue-kote?
I would separate him from the hens for a few days to let him heal up a bit.
 
it looks like he has dry fowl pox. Definitely separate him and see if he has any blisters inside his mouth
(The yellow blisters on his cheeks and earlobes are fowl pox symptoms.)
Make sure to check your girls, fowl pox is contagious
