Bearded Dragon Swollen Toe

Status
Not open for further replies.
I noticed last week that my bearded dragon's toe was slightly swollen. I called my vet, and they said it was probably a stuck shed. So I gave him plenty of baths and used aloe on his foot. The swelling got a little worse, but never enough to warrent an immediate trip to the vet. Just yeterday, the foot shed, and while the swelling went down a little, it's still obvious.

Here's a picture from today. I can upload images from last week if anyone wants.
Does anyone know what it could be? Of course, if this doesn't clear up in a few days I will definitely take him to the vet but I don't want to spend $100 if it's something easy to fix.
And for care specifics,
Basking spot: 110 degrees Fahrenheit
Cool side: 80 degrees
UV bulb was recently replaced
Main diet: collard greens, kale, blueberries, and superworms
Age: about one year
Tank size: 40 gallons
(sorry if I forgot anything)
And he hasn't been exhibiting any unusual behavior or other signs of illness.
Thanks for any help!

Hi there....is the nail gone ? Can you post a pic of his tank ? Soetimes beardies get their toe stuck in something and hurt/tear the nail which causes a bit of inflammation....even getting snagged on a rock or in a hammock. It doesn't look too bad, give it some time, maybe a dab of Neosporin or raw honey [ from health food store ] I think it will be O.K :)

No, the nail is still there, and it looks fine to me. I'll try uploading a picture once I get my camera. It's possible he snagged it on a piece of wood in there, I'll see about replacing that just in case. And thanks for the suggestions!

Oh, I see the reflection in the pic you posted of his toes showing all his nails. Probably just a little sprain that will heal up in a week or two.

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. 😔
