Re: My snake has an inflammed growth after rat bite. Help!
This bp looks like he isn't big enough to handle rats to me. In any case the injury is severe bc it involves the airway and it appears infected. Only a vet will be able to correct this. Good luck. The bp is having difficulty breathing bc the swelling and infection is directly over his right nostril.

Invasive surgery isn't likely but the animal definitely needs vet care and antibiotics ASAP, otherwise that infection will go septic and kill your snake.
