Discolored spot

My veiled has this strange discolored spot on its side and kind of on its lower back. It also has some new purple like colors and I’m not sure if that’s normal. A reptile shop told me it was for sure a male but I’m not totally sure if they are right. Going to attach pictures of the spot. It does change so I’ll post a few. The purple is only along the back and around the weird spot.
The last picture is its other side without a spot.

Looks like a burn. Test your basking light. Put your hand inside the cage as close to the light as possible…palm down away from the light, if you want to move your hand, (don’t be a hero), then it’s too hot for your chameleon to be sitting there.

A silver sulfadiazine cream will help it heal but you’ll likely need a prescription to get it.
