Days old Naked Neck with weird injury on head?

I just purchased my first two Turkens two days ago, (a black and a white, straight run), and yesterday I noticed the black one has what looks like a raised scab-like injury(?) on the back of his bare head/neck. And today, it is darker and looks more like a wound than it did. The naked necks are in with two same-age Jersey Giants, and some older chicks, and I wondered if maybe it looked worse because an older chick pecked at it, but it was there before I put them in together, so, I know they didn't cause it.
My question is, is it just a small injury, or is it something I should be concerned about/ treat? Thank you!

Looks like an injury - could be from a peck or it got poked by some wire or something.
I would probably put a dab of triple antibiotic ointment just on the scab, hopefully it will heal up no problem.

thank you! Just wanted to make sure it wasn't something else!
