    Yeah scrubbing isn't really the right word in terms of force. Lightly rubbing the area with gauze soaked in the sterilizing solution...maybe lightly "dabbing" it would have been a better choice of words. Definitely don't scrub with any heavy force. The actual light scrubbing comes later, when removing (debriding) the dead skin and there are scales growing back underneath.

    I was thinking about asking a mod to just delete my post because basing any "treatment" off of a forum post is just not good. I was really just trying to share what worked for me, not be an advocate for treating the snake. He needs to see a herp vet.
