Burm Medical Issue Question

Hey guys, wanted to know if you could ID an issue. I visited a friend the other day who has several burms and he asked me to identify a mass in one of them. I'm at a loss!

Here's the facts:

She's a Female
Mass has been there since June or so
She is eating regularly, but this lump is not a recent meal...
Doesn't appear to have pooped recently
Mass is pretty hard and lumpy
It doesn't extend to the cloaca as I would expect if it was impacted feces
Appears healthy in every other way

Here's the pics:

Any ideas I can pass on to him would be helpful. I'm very curious myself!]

Get her to the vet immediately.

Looks like she may have something twisted up inside there.

Id tell your buddy to get her to the vet immediately as well, and then ask him why he let it fester for 7-8 months.

I dont believe feces will bind up at the cloaca, dont they usually sit higher up in the animal? There could be a problem further up the snake.
