Urgent! Possible tail rot under stuck shed!

[SweetSpicyDragon]

Lately I've become allergic to my bearded dragon Hydra, so his in-depth care has been more spaced out than usual. Today, when he was getting a look-over, I noticed his tail was grey. I tried to gently remove what I thought was stuck shed, only to see the issue at the very tip. After I took care of his shed, with much protest from him (he was lashing his tail more than usual so I'm presuming it probably hurt a bit), I just don't like the look of his tail and it's making me worried. Please help!

It does look damaged, maybe try some unpasteurized raw, or Manuka honey. You can also use an antibacterial cream, but make sure that doesn't have any pain reliever in it. Personally because it is a place he can reach and maybe lick, i would use the honey

Hello,

I agree, raw unpasteurized honey is terrific & safe if ingested.
Did he pinch it in between something in his tank?
He should be just fine, but, I would keep a close eye on that area to be sure it doesn't
become infected & travel upwards on the tail.
