This could be multiple things - from 'stings' to an illness - we need more information.

A little blurry but dont see ich, which is good and more like remnants from bite mark or puncture wounds. Keep an eye on them to assure they are not multiplying or moving amongst the body. If so, treat the fish in a separate tank using seachem Neoplex with added aeration.
If you have ruby rally pro, you can add it now safely with coral and inverts

I’ll keep an eye. I have a pair of clowns and I see them going at it once in a while but it’s a quick two seconds and done. They’re always together besides that. The one that has the bumps is the bigger one.

They have teeth and will use them

Yah but if any of the clowns are getting bullied I would think it would be the smaller one. The bigger ones are more dominant.

Often it is the smaller as the larger often being female is the aggressor and will chase the male, corner it, bite at it, take all the food and claim most the tank from male

Yah which is what I was telling that guy. The marks are on the bigger clown. I would imagine it being the other way around if it was from them fighting each other.
