    I would just keep an eye out. If he's moving around ok and eating ok he should be ok. Hope you fixed the enclosure so he can't escape again.

    I'd say soak him for a bit an wait to see if he sheds, can't hurt him even if he wasn't injured

    if he's injured, you would most likely be able to see it. like a broken rib. if he was in pain he probably wouldn't eat. keep an eye on him, he's most likely ok. if you don't fix how he got out, he will do it again. don

    I would leave him completely Alone. If there was an injury you may or may not be able to tell. But also it's not like a vet can put a cast on him. There's nothing anyone can do. Let him destress, and I'm sure you need to take another look at his enclosure to make sure this can't happen again. No need for a soak. And unless you can see lacerations, there's nothing you need to do.
