I'd just keep the water clean and watch the wound. He should heal himself.
Things you should watch for:
redness - usually some bacteria invading the wound, or some other irritation
fuzziness - opportunistic fungus
black tissue - dead tissue, something's really wrong
The area should stay white until it heals enough for the color to come back. White is good, it's a sign of healing tissue.
I wouldn't treat with anything unless you see signs like those.

I thought the same thing except I did not have a betta in there until just recently. It is possible that my other dwarf guaramie gave him the injury. I did notice slight agression toward eachother before I saw the wound. I was telling you my neons had raised spots just before their tail. Here is a picture. Expecially look at the one near the top of the picture. I wondered if these raised round spots had anything to do with it. My Dad didn't think so though.
