Looks like HLLE (head and lateral line erosion). There are a lot of opinions about what causes this, but the consensus is that good water quality and high-quality foods will reverse it. Tangs need a lot of algae in their diet, so make sure you are feeding lots of nori. If he'll eat pellets, NLS pellets are a high-quality complete food.

What about the fuzziness on his tail spike?

I don't really see fuzziness in the pictures near his scalpel. What is do see is the same discoloration indicative of HLLE.
