most likely parasites, i.e. skin worms..

if that is what it is, there is nothing you can do other then let them work their way out of the frogs skin, and then treat the wounds they leave behind..

you will need to completely tear down his tank and sanitize everything so that they dont come back, and if you have other frogs, that they dont take them as hosts..

is he wild caught? has he been treated for parasites?

taking him to the vet is a very smart move, as they should be able to determine what it is..

good luck with him!!
