Yellow bumps under shed

Hello,

Let us know how the healing is going. I hope you are able to find some silver cream. If you aren't
able to find that, you can also try some raw unpasteurized honey to help out with infection. It is very
safe to use, as well.

This is a picture of it last night from after she shed and another one from this morning. This morning it’s all dried up. I went to the vet during their walk in hours and they refused to see us because no one was able to see reptiles. (Our vet is still out of town.) This time they did offer an appointment until then. This is the only reputable exciting vet anywhere even close to me. I am willing to travel but even then there is nothing realistic. She’s acting normal and ate a ton. I think she’s feeling much better having finally shed, this was a rough one for her. Until thursday I will do iodine rinses and raw honey. Let me know any other tips you have! Thanks for everything for far, Tracie and @AHBD

Sounds good, only other thing I can think of is remember to not pull any shed off. Hopefully this will heal up soon, good to hear that her appetite is back.

Hello,

That is good news she seems to be feeling better. I agree, just continue to use the diluted betadine rinses when needed & applying the raw honey to help ward off any infection.

Hi there, I was just wondering how Mango is doing ?

Hi there, I was just wondering how Mango is doing ?

Hi! Thanks so much for checking in. Our visit with the vet filling in for our usual doc was not particularly helpful. We did start antibiotics and got a fecal test done. It came back with coccidia so we’re treating that now as well. The vet told me to start soaking her again to help with the shed that she’s avoiding getting off herself because of the abscess so it doesn’t get stuck. I think her eye is looking much better after I started using a q tip and aloe baths to help her get the shed off there. Her abscess looks better everyday, but is definitely not gone. It looks half empty with open skin, and half full of the more typical reptile pus rather than the green liquid we were seeing before. We added repashy to her diet after vet recommended vitamins could help with eye as well. Not as a replacement food, just as a topper. Her attitude is normal besides being so annoyed with all my messing around with her and making her tank bare bones to get rid of the parasite. We have a visit scheduled for the day our usual vet is back from his vacation to get his thoughts on it. He is amazing and we really trust him so I’ll be sure to update after that next week. I love her so much, I’m just hoping I’m doing everything right for her until then.

O.K, sounds good and her eye looks much better ! I think the best things you could use on her side are either raw honey or silver cream. They promote healing so keep that in your arsenal as well. How long will she be on coccidia meds. and which meds are they ?
