Hurt Ball python with horizontal cuts.

[dr del]

Hey everyone back from the vet with good news. The burns are not as bad as we originally thought. The snake does not need any kind of surgery or injections. I'm treating him with a betadine solution bath and with a topical silver sulfadiazine cream. Vet says that after a little while he'll be fine. Thanks for all the help and information guys. I really appreciate it.

Glad to hear that.

Keep an eye on the area for infection and get treatment fast if any appears. Also every shed will probably re-open large parts of it - and she will shed a lot as part of the healing process.
