Scale Rot NNNNOOOOooo

[lance]

I'm sure with a vet appt and good antibiotics she will be just fine. Scales rot occurs from bacteria getting trapped under the scales. And it infecting the tissue and
The scales creating blisters
And infection. Chewing mites could definately help that along. Even though the mites may be gone,the damage had already started. Scale rot is very treatable when treated with proper meds and husbandry. Until this starts getting better id switch her to paper towel sub. And have betadyne on hand if you don't already. Combined with the antibiotics I'd wipe down her belly and any other infected areas with the betadyne once a day or do a soak with a betadyne/water solution once a day. Either or will work. Also just to further prevent anymore possible Bacteria I'd change the papertowel 1x daily. I hope this is helpful.

Thank you very much I will be doing that and I am gonna take her to vets in case I don't wanna loose her.

The only way scale rot will kill her is if you don't treat it and let it eat her.

Do see a vet, better safe than sorry. Switch her onto papertowels for the duration of treatment, you must keep things cleaner-than-hospital clean. Get yourself some Betadine, and mix it with water to wipe her with or let her shallow soak, whichever she tolerates better.

The vet will give you antibiotics to treat her with after her Betadine. If you keep her clean and warm and treated with antibiotics, she should heal up fairly quickly.
