Hopefully Drake will deflate as well. ;)
I had a similar experience when one of my boas at work named Slick developed a similar lump on one side of her face. After taking her to be checked out, and no infection was found, our vet recommended we move her into a different cage, as she suspected the localized edema was from rubbing. Slick was housed in a 4' neodesha slant-front cage at the time. We moved her into a vision, and the swelling went down over the next few weeks, and never came back. I hope Drake makes a quick and full recovery :sunny: .
