Hello! I’m fairly certain that my girl has gout. Her foot is swollen and one of her toes is swollen as well. The thing is, I live in an area where we only have like one exotic vet nearby who treats reptiles, and she is not very good. I have tried to have my girl treated there and she just will NOT listen to me. The next closest vet that treats reptiles is almost 3 hours away and I absolutely cannot make that trip right now for many reasons, and my girl needs treatment. I remember reading on here somewhere about a website where you can purchase allopurinol without a prescription. Can anyone help me? Thank you so much!

Did you have blood work done to see if it's gout? You don't want to treat for gout unless your absolutely sure - to rule it out do you have a hammock in the tank? What kind of uvb? Long tube or coil? Please post a pic of of dragon and limbs in question
Do post some pictures of her, along with your tank setup, etc so we can see how everything looks &
her condition.
How long has she had the swelling? We can also review your supplementation & her diet for her, too.
Is she able to get around very well right now?
I am sending you a PM here, too.
