Thank you for reading this and considering giving me advice!
I’ve got a bearded dragon named Pablo who is anywhere from 6-9 years old (don’t know for sure, he was rescued). I’ve had him for two years and love him dearly, unfortunately I’ve been away for a while (don’t worry, he was being super well cared for) and returned to find he hadn’t pooped in two weeks and he stopped using his hind legs. I took him to the vet, they got him to go but he hasn’t gone since and his lower back is painful and jerks when you touch it. I took him for a follow up appointment two weeks after and they couldn’t get him to poop, he’s on pain meds and being syringe fed some special nutrition food(with calcium). The x-rays didn’t show anything abnormal about his spine. He gets a bath everyday and really try’s to go but just can’t. The vet doesn’t seem to know what’s going on and I can’t afford many more appointments.
Any advice on what you think I should do would be much appreciated!
