Beard half inflated after getting stuck with head facing gown?

Hi guys, so Pickle doesn’t typically inflate his beard at all, but it’s been like this since yesterday when I found him stuck against the glass and his cork bark with his head facing down. He wasn’t like that long, maybe an hour or less? He’s otherwise acting normal and eating, and it feels like it’s inflated with an air bubble. Other than that he’s eating and acting like normal. The last photo is one I took of him about an hour after I helped him out. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hello,

Poor Pickle! He got stuck with his head down so it probably upset the fluid levels perhaps. Was it
a pretty tight fit in between there?
I don't think there is a whole lot you can do other than trying to keep him from getting wedged again,
he was being naughty! Did you move the furniture around so he doesn't get himself stuck again, poor
thing.
Maybe keep him a little warmer overnight right now, to help boost his system in case he might not be
feeling 100%. At least he is eating & acting normal right now.

Let us know how he is doing!

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.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
