Good deal you got him checked out.

Scary thought it is so far advanced they needed to keep him overnight and lance it. Good thing you got it stopped before it got out of control and something awful happened. Have the vet teach you how to do the injections, the big thing is you must give an injection VERY shallow in a snake, or you hit bone and that hurts. Shots are easier to do with two people than one, but if your guy is small you can do it alone.

Keep us updated!
