Dragon's Tail Pinched in Kennel

It has been a while since I have posted on here. Have not had any issues with my little friends since and they have been wonderful!

But I accidentally hurt my dragon today when I put him in a kennel for about an hour. His tail was pinched and I found it an hour after.

He doesn't seem to have much feeling in it with some of his scales coming off and a tiny itty bit of red. He is usually extremely sensitive in the tip of his tail so he definitely cannot feel it when I touch it or move it around.

I have heard of the tail rot that happens when something like that occurs. But is there any precautions I need to take for him so that he can heal this?

Clean it with a dilute betadiene wash , and then apply manuka honey to the injured area , will be worth getting him to a vet to have the injured tail examined .

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?
