Is this scale rot?

My beardie has these scales on her belly! They are shrivelling up and I’m not sure if it’s because of an injury or if it’s scale rot! She’s had them for a few weeks now!

Hello,

A lot of them have scales that just don't want to shed off,
so they become dry & yellowish. They will eventually shed
off. You can give a few baths to help out also.

Thank you all for your answers! I can rest easy now! I was a bit freaked out! She’s my first beardie and I’ve had her for almost 2 years now! She’s my baby!

Hello,

It is hard not to worry about them, we have all been there!
They can worry us to death over the smallest things. I am
sure she will shed all of that off eventually & have her nice
white belly back again!

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
