Weird sore?

Not open for further replies.
Hello I am a bit concerned because my beardie suddenly jerked in a spastic way, almost like someone who just woke up from a bad dream, and puffed up her beard. So I went in and picked her up and noticed her vent wasn't tucked in all the way and there was some shed that seemed to be causing the problem. so I peeled it off and it seemed to tuck in again but it seemed rather raw and there was even a little blood. now I'm no amateur and I know that the shed was good and ready to come off so that couldn't be why, and it probably wasn't even from there but just got stuck there because I also noticed she had just gone to the bathroom not too long ago. so I cleaned up the waste and got her out and here I am. Should I be concerned or take her to the vet? I'm especially worried that waste got into the wound or sore or whatever and it seems to be causing her pain. any help would be appreciated.

here is an image I know it's a bit blurry but I hope the description I wrote helps.

I would try to keep it clean. Maybe apply some plain neosporin to help it heal and prevent infection. It will likely be OK if the skin went back into place and you don't start to see swelling or bleeding. If you do see any swelling or bleeding, or if the skin comes back out (prolapse), then I advise visiting a vet. They can help to prevent infection and if needed they can put in some stitches to help keep everything in place until it heals.

I advise a diet of soft foods for the time being. Things like squash and soft bugs like black soldier fly larvae, horn worms, or silk worms. Also offer plenty of water to help keep her hydrated. Just drip some on her nose so she can lick it up if she is thirsty. This will help prevent strain when she poops again.

Thank you. she seems to be doing just fine now and I was also recommended that I give her a few drops of olive oil if she seems constipated.

That and some canned pumpkin or unsweetened applesauce or baby food prunes -- those are natural laxatives

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
