What could of caused these marks?

Yesterday I was holding my snake, and noticed to spots on him that looked kinda odd/damaged. One is a small pinkish mark on his back, and one looks like almost like a tiny scar on his side. I've had him for 2 months now, and I hope him enough to know these marks are new.

Tapatalk won't let me upload the one on his back. I'll have to post that one later.

I dont see anything

I feed f/t. And the mark is only like the size of one scale. Look slightly below the very center of the photo.

Im sorry I dont see what you are seeing. I see normal scales.

I can see it. Did he shed recently? Looks like he may have tore a scale while shedding. It's really easy to see on yellow snakes

He did shed recently. In person I don't see a missing scale. If it is a missing scale, will it grow back or will that mark be there forever?

Doesn't look like it's missing just he tore it. Sometimes it happens and is very easily seen on banana and albino morphs because of the yellow. It will be normal after his next shed, in the future I would bump the humidity up a few percent during his sheds and it will help keep it from repeating

I do increase the humidity during shed. His last shed was a perfect 1 piece shed.
