Good shed bad problem!!

Ok so my ball had a good shed and everything all skin and eye caps came off so thats good but i got him out today to check him out and clean his cage and I found a pretty good sized cut on top of his head between his eyes so I started puttin some neospoirn on it wich is what the vet said to do but I noticed then the chunk of skin still should I cut it off wich im kinda afraid to do just in case there still feelin in it or just wait it out and see what happens with it if any body has a clue please help I guess if nothin else to the vet we go! :confused:

i would say leave it and ask your vet. Then if it needs to be taken of the vet can do it without causeing the snake pain

I would leave it to the vet.

The vet will know what to do, and if any type of procedure does have to be done, better the vet than you.

hope everything turns out well

good luck

If you try cutting the skin off you could actually do more harm than good. It's also a great way to introduce infection to your pet. While it may sound silly, a non-sterilzed instrument can introduce bacteria and germ that could be potentially harmful to your snake. Wait a few days and see what happens. If things don't look better by, say Wednesday, I would get your snake to the vet for further, qualified treatment.

Can you post a picture? That would help a lot.
