Is my BP okay? Burns?

[JLC]

Okay, so I do have a little thermometer that I put right outside of the log to measure the bottom heat right there. At the moment it is 90 degrees. I slid the log up against the side of the tank so that there was no opening on that side. However, I do notice that sometimes he likes to wind himself through the log. He will have the tip of his tail hanging out of the back and lay half out of it. I will also look into getting a hide for the other corner of his tank, next to the water dish, and I will look into a thermostat.
As for the scale rot, so you not suggest that I change anything? Should I not put down cardboard or paper towels under the substrate? I also mist his substrate whenever I see the humidity getting low (the humidity is my biggest problem), and in order to keep the sides of his tank clean, I spray right down onto the substrate. Is this a problem? Could this be making it too wet?

I highly recommend using paper until everything is healed up, as mentioned earlier. I simply can't comment on the cardboard under the paper because I wouldn't ever do it that way myself. I never set up a heat mat without a control first and can't/won't guess at how well cardboard might work. I will say that if you choose to do that, you'll have to be sure to have enough of it to change it out every time he poops or pees.

A little spritzing on the substrate shouldn't hurt...but if it's WET, then that could be an issue. It won't hurt to let the humidity drop a bit during this healing time. In the 40's would be alright...then bump it back up when you see him getting ready for a shed. (Which may be fairly soon, as wounds/injuries will often induce a shed)

Also, please don't use tape inside the snake's enclosure.....trust me, he will find a way to stick it to himself and then it will be very difficult to remove it

Thank you! I meant to mention that and forgot to include it. Please don't use tape in the enclosure. Very dangerous!
