Hello! So my Luna has got me in quite the predicament. Last month (Sept 22) her jaw was swollen and she has a big bump on her bottom jaw. I was super worried about it being mouth rot or something so I was able to get an appointment within a couple days and the vet said that it's just a slight infection from her jaw being misaligned. She was treated with antibiotics every 3 days for 5 shots. Those went well and everything was fine it looked better after the treatment of antibiotics. I tried to ask what causes it and will it fix itself or will this keep happening and I think I know my answer now. Today (Oct 20) I noticed her mouth is starting to look like it did last month.
So since my vet kinda avoided the question about how to fix this permanently, does anyone else have a ball python with the same issue? I just want to know what I can do to help her.
She eats a weaned rat around 40g every ten days and hasn't missed a meal since I got her so that's good. She's around 500g and just under 3 ft.
