Noob question- sore on BP's head

Sorry if this has been answered already. My BP has developed a small sore on his head recently. He doesn't seem to be in pain, still eats, acting normal, etc. Sorry the pics not better. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._1030942_n.jpg

wow what is that? whats your heat source? is it a uth, or light? u should take him to the vet for some snake neosporin lol thats weird how it is perfectly centered. wish I could be more help.........BUMP FOR SMARTER members lol

My Female Normal has this same mark, but shes in deep shed and getting ready to get it off. She is used to rubbing around a lot during shed because for 3 years she was in a gigantic tank with extrememly low humidity.

It goes away over time, but that one looks pretty fresh, i would push some Neosporin without painkiller on the wound and let it heal up. As long as it doesn't get worse or spread, you should be fine.

Aww poor thing :(
I would suggest maybe cleaning it with diluted iodine and then putting neosporin on it.
After a few sheds It should be fine.
However if it does get worse I would def bring it to a vet.

Looks like it might be from your snake rubbing it's head against the screen, or if you are using a stand alone tub it may be rubbing on the underside of the lid...

I'm using a uth so I guess a burn is unlikely. He just shed so I'm not sure if that might have something to do with it. I do a have a screen lid but I haven't seen him rub on it in months.

Thanks for all of the help :)
