Purple tang needs help. Urgent

[lv_reefer]

My newly acquired tang has ich and is undergoing TTM treatment in 5th day. Now she has two big holes near its fin and dorsal fin. She eats well and active. Just occasionally twitch.
History: I purchased it from a local guy that trades fish. The tang was in a temporary tank with 3 other tangs separated by partitions. The fish had no sign of illness or wounds so I bought it. 3 days back home, she started to have ich symptom. I started TTM immediately using styrofoam boxes.
Would the wounds due to the ich or the spike in ammonia? I am doing TTM on every 24 hours in order to reduce ammonia. Temp at 80F. Salinity 1.024 and decreasing to 1.018 gradually on every TTM transfer.

I am feeding her with frozen brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, seaweed, pellets. She eats like a horse.

Any help on the wounds would help. Thank you in advance.

Styrofoam Boxes if not lined with bags will injure fish. The reason I know this, is when I was a Teenager Collecting in Florida. We got a huge haul. Put some of the fish in our styrofoam cooler. All the Fish except some Mangrove Bleenies were injured.
