Hello all!
first time posting so want to give a little background on me. I have been a culbrid keeper for many 10+ years and a few years back I was a professional corn snake breeder until I started having kids with my wife and I shut down the side business. So I know a few things about snakes but never have kept pythons.
I aquired today a fireball python as it was described to me. He seems pretty calm and nice. Had a very spotty and flaky shed right now. But looking him over he looks to have been left with a rat that messed up his side pretty good a while back. Here is a pic:

never had to deal with bad injuries before. I just never let rats get old enough to do that. Think I need to treat with neosporin? "Non-pain relieving" do something else? Or does this look old enough that there is no point in doing anything now?
Thanks for any insite into this.
