Nose bump

[Shke0]

My ball python has a bit of a nose bump right where his larger scales on his nose are. It doesn’t seem like he’s in any pain from it. I noticed it in July but now (November) it has gotten slightly bigger. Has anyone else had this problem? Any idea for solutions?

his tank set up is a glass tank with half logs as hides he has a mesh screen top.
Before I noticed his nose he was in a tub with a rock hide. (His nose was fine)

Just a week ago I did witness him rubbing his mouth on the log but I’m not sure If that has anything to do with his nose.

i also want to add he only eats frozen thawed

It could be getting ready to shed.

After every shed the bump remains

Hard to tell without seeing the picture but it is likely due to nose rub sometimes it leaves marks and creates a bump on the nose.

It’s maybe easier to download and use the free app TapaTalk to instantly upload photos from your mobile
