Ok so my 7 ish mo male albino green burm came to me late December with a RI. The only signs he had were wheezes and a pop noise kinda sounds like a pop off every time he breathed heavy, the vet treated him with a total of 8 Fortaz shots, wheezing was gone and the small amour of dripping saliva he started having right before we took him to the vet was gone. Currently he is still making the occasional pop/depressurization noise with a deep exhale, but the doc said it is probably just a normal thing, but the reason for this post is that I just soaked him because he had a bad shed a week ago and I am trying to get the rest off, btw he also came with mites which I got rid of, so I assume the bad shed was because all the treatments. Well after I took him out of his soak his neck right behind his head (about 1 1/2 inches) looked all puffed up I had never seen this before, it seems to have gone away now, I want to know what that could be from and if u think I should still be concerned about this pop off/ depressurizing noise, keep in mind it's only when he exhales loudly. Btw he did poo while soaking but I changed the water after he did.
