Quote: “I called my vet and over the phone he suspects a food allergy. He didn’t have any appointments today, but I will ask him to exam him. thank you”.
“Did anyone hear of a food allergy causing this”?

Good idea!
I would not apply anything to the area you could make the situation worse!
Food allergies tend to present as gastrointestinal distress, in example: diarrhea and vomiting.

Is there a vet tech at your clinic that could fit him in today? I would give them a call.
I am sure they could determine if his anal glands need expressing and it only takes a minute.
Plus it costs less for a 15 minute vet tech appointment.

Good luck!
