I think it has a double function. On the one hand, it suggests fear of microbes, but that does not seem to be the case; however, the "fear of contamination" can be read as a desire to remain physically and emotionally separated from others, which matches his behaviour (I think it's great that as soon as Ko introduce Yuma to him, he tried to piss Yuma off). On the other, it kind of looks like a muzzle, which relates to his aggression, visually expressed by his teeth.
