My bearded dragon has swollen legs (front left & back right). I took him to the vet yesterday & they took an x-ray & said it’s just swollen soft tissue. Does anyone have any thoughts on what it might be?

No, he only did the x-ray. I have a follow-up appt with him next Friday morning, so that’s why I wanted to ask on here. That way I’ll know what to ask the vet to do/look for at that appt.

I am suspicious of gout or pre-gout syndrome at the very least. Is he having any mobility issues right now?
I know it is costly but it is the best way to get a diagnosis of gout if possible. The x-rays look pretty good & his
bone density is bright on most of the areas on the film.
Can you review the type/brand of UVB you are using & some on his supplementation & diet, too?
Can you show us more angles? The only parts I see swollen are the 2 toes and foot that look like they're about to shed. I don't see anything wrong with the legs but maybe I just can't tell with those pics.
