I know this has been posted before, but my beardie appears to have a bruised forefoot. She's favoring it and pulls it away from me when I try to see it. I haven't touched it since and only noticed it today. She's running a Zilla UVB lamp on a screen top in a 10 gallon tank and she's maybe 2/3 months old. I got her about a month ago.
Sorry I am unable to view pictures with the google link. You can try uploading the pictures

Did your dragon fall & is the foot swollen at all?
The Zilla tube bulb is not very strong & since it's on top of the screen it wont provide nearly
enough UVB emissions. For now, you can mount the UVB tube underneath of the screen to
a distance of 6-8 inches from her.
I highly recommend getting her into a 30 gallon minimum for now, so you can get a stronger
UVB tube. The Reptisun 10 T5 or the Arcadia D3 12% or 14% T5 tube bulbs are both great.
You will need to purchase a high output (T5) light fixture. The lights are well worth it too.
They will give her a much higher UVB exposure rate than the Zilla.
She may not be absorbing her calcium very well without proper UVB exposure.
Do you supplement calcium regularly?
I am glad to hear she is up & basking as well as eating, too. So she doesn't act like she is
in any pain, no black beard, etc?
