i baught a male betta fish on friday and i have noticed that when it breathes, an air bubble comes out of his right gill. What does that mean??? is he injured or what??? is it serious???? what can do to help him??
he swims fast and he looks normal
 
you cant really do anything about it. check on him every now and then if it makes him function strangely then you might want to buy a new one or see a doctor. but if not them don't react to him. he could be perfectly fine for all you know. so just check on him every once in a while.
 
No, that's normal. That's just what happens sometimes when they breathe. You may see it coming from its mouth as well, as they makes bubble nests at the top of the water :).
