Tail rot?

I purchased my bearded dragon a couple months ago from pet smart. A few days later I noticed the tip of his tail looked a little beat up as if he had fought with another bearded dragon at the store or something. The tip has since fallen off somewhere and his tail seems to be getting darker. I’m not sure if it’s tail rot and could use some advice. Thanks In advance.

His tail looks normal to me, i dont see any stuck shed either, if your still concern and it looks weird to you please post a follow up picture, u can order a product called “betadine” its used for tail rot, and other cuts and bruises, dilute it in water 1part solution to 5 parts water, its an antiseptic so if he does have a tail nip it might sting him a little, soak the tip for five minutes wash n dry it off.
