How is your dragon this evening?
Are you using any probiotics while she has been on medications?
I am not seeing any sores in the mouth, but it could just be the picture quality here online,
but is it extra red in color or irritated?
The leg soreness or paralysis is somewhat common after an injection, especially if a nerve
was hit during injection.
Let us know how she is doing.
Yes, it's red and a little swollen on the roof of her mouth on 1 side. I will try to get a better picture, I'm just worried about infection and it getting worse.

She is still not eating and it appears more swollen than yesterday. It definitely looks red and irritated. And no I did not give her any probiotics and she is off the medications now.
Yes, I do see the red irritation now.
Have you been able to get her to eat anything yet?
As suggested, try the maxiguard on that area, daily to try & get that cleared up. You can also
try using some honey dabbed on that too, but be sure to thin it out with some water water, first.

Yes, she ate 2 hornworms yesterday. But I noticed she had yellow snot too, could this be a sign of respiratory infection? Should I take her to the vet?
Not necessarily, but keep an eye on it. If she starts acting more lethargic, wheezing, or if you start to see a significant mucous buildup around her nose and mouth then it may indicate an infection and warrant a vet visit. I'd just observe for now though.

I do have a vet visit scheduled for her, but the earliest they could do was February 9th unless she gets worse and then they can see her for emergency care. So for now, I'm going to do the recommendations that you guys gave me and if she gets worse I'll call the vet back.
