That's why I said that - they aren't cuddling. She's dominating him, and he's paying for it horribly.

Not to be harsh, but you want to know how to help your ill snake, and everyone is trying to advise you.
Seperate the snakes immediately. Use sterilite tubs with lids.. there's stickys here on how to make a great healthy set up for a small amount of money. If you cannot afford to set up the sick snake properly, then rehome him BEFORE HE DIES.
If you continue to keep him in that huge tank with the female, he will die, and you will be at fault for it. What do you feed them in? Use that to house him, and leave her in the oversized tank.
To reiterate...
1. Seperate the male into a different enclosure.
2. Keep him in a clean enclosure, with humidity.
3. Treat the burn(wound) with polysporin(without pain relief - that is toxic).
4. Leave him along other than the necasary handling for treatment, and provide two good hides for him to relax in ALONE.
I hope you listen to some of the advice, and I hope he will get better.

They are not cuddling. Several people have given you exactly what you need to do. If you can not provide these things you need to allow some one else to.
Please we are not trying to judge you. We are not trying to get down on you. The people on this website combined know pretty much every situation and how to handle injuries and poor husbandry. There are two of the best people on this site giving you advice, please listen to them or your pet snake will die. It is not a question of if it is when.
We are always happy to have new members and are always willing to help, but if you are just going to argue or ignore the advice then you are wasting many peoples time, mainly your snakes.
I am sorry if I was rude but it seemed like you are not willing to listen,
Mike

I was just at the store looking at tubs to build my rack. 6 qt tub will cost u $1, 16 was maybe $3. That plus maybe $10 for a very small UTH. Put down paper towel + a small bowl of water u have at the house, and grab something small to make a hide.. u don't have to buy it all.
