My eight-year old dragon recently had a bit of stuck shed on his eyelid, and while trying to scratch it loose, it looks like he hooked his nostril with a nail and sliced into it a bit. It must be bugging him because I've noticed lately that he keeps swiping at it and is clearly doing more damage.
I'm regularly wiping it with Betadine and putting a tiny dab of plain antibiotic ointment on the cut, but since he can't seem to leave it alone, I'm worried it won't get the chance it needs to heal. Are there any safe topical pain/itching treatments I can use in conjunction with the antiseptics to keep him from making things worse?
