Hi,

I put my female in a new tub and thought she'd be good in it, but I was wrong. Right by the lid, there was almost like a lip that came down inside and left about a half inch between that and the lid. I guess through the night, she was testing the new tub and rubbed her nose raw. I put betadine on it over the next few days and it looked like it was healing, almost like it scabbed over, so I started leaving it alone. Well she shed a couple days ago and I was assuming the scab would come off with her shed, but it didn't. It's still scabbed over, but it looks like it's starting to come off and under the shed it looks raw again. I was just going to leave it as is for now, thinking that maybe it's just not ready to come off. I'm hoping it'll come off on her next shed or maybe she'll rub it off on her own. But I'm really not sure if I should leave it. Should I try soaking it in water? Or maybe try putting more betadine on it? I already feel so awful that I didn't notice the lip coming down the inside of her lid and allowing this to happen so I just want to help her as best I can.

These aren't the best pictures.. she wouldn't hold still.
