Best to post a picture. But sounds like cottonmouth? Are your fish eating? You can try a 20% PWC and add a dose of aquarium salt to start. I'm no vet but this is what I would try.

I already use aquarium salt and would not want to add more. It sounds like i need to remove the infected fish and treat tank with copper sulfate

I agree on the water change, but I don't think it is a good idea to add salt at all. A photo would really help -- tough to diagnose without that.
