    Could you also try to get a picture of his "prolapsed hemipenes"? Because I am wondering if what you(and the vet) are seeing are the "spurs" which are supposed to be out.

    A humid hide(or two even) could help his hydration as well. Those would be super easy and cheap to make. A tupperware bowl big enough to hold him, with dampened moss inside and a hole cut into it.

    I would have had him on at least a mouse hopper, even at 50 grams. So his size could be underfeeding, if he's only been getting enough calories to maintain himself.

    I would wait a week before offering more food, since he just had the hopper. Congrats on him eating it and good job on offering it wet too.

    If people here sound aggressive, it's just because they really love ball pythons, so they want to see your pet get better. That's all.
