It could be an abscess. Maybe a cricket bit or he somehow cut himself and it is swelling with pus. I'd have it drained immeditely. If you thin kyou got the steady hands to drain it and then cauterize the wound with a hot knife do it. (Home surgery)
Before this i would take him to a vet immediately
I could be wrong but i think i've had an encounter with those..
Have you tried touching em? I think ive had a similar bug on me once and bit REALLY REALLY REALL hard. hurt so bad..
could just be regular plant bugs, i wouldn't risk it though. If this plant is in your cham's arboreum id get rid...
I believe is just a thing that happens. You know? As a species evolves nature likes to play games to see what fits best. And each individual develops a physical character. Just like in humans some have big, small nose or ears.

Aw look at the lil thing.
I'm pretty sure that by this time you've done a good amount of research on itt.

Naturally their are territorial and aggressive. They gotta be.
But most chameleons have already had more than 5 generation born in captivity and separated from other chams.
Whatever agressiveness that migt remain is instinct. You'll be fine dude that chams gonna loverz you.
Man i cant really answer your question and im sorry to hear about your chamm.
It's prolly just real traumatized. Chameleons being arboreal creatures and all. Sorry.
I know bad experiences with veileds who hate on flies. Try killing them first, though the ussualy dont recognize dead non moving prey.
Wave the fly on his face n stuff.
Basically you are trying to make him realize this is edible. Sprinkle some candy on it too :)) At some point he should be...
