    Scale rot?

    We were given a ball python yesterday and I noticed under its belly it had unhealthy looking brown scales. This is only my second snake I’ve owned so I’m unsure what scale rot exactly looks like. I’m 90% sure that’s what this is, but please correct me if I’m wrong? I googled everything I could about it, I read a betadine bath is the way to go treating it if it’s mild. Is this considered a mild case or is this considered a vet trip necessary case? Right now I’m going to continue with the 2x a day betadine bath and Neosporin that I’ve read I should do, but please correct me if I can treat this better or if it’s too far along to not seek professional care.
