I'm sorry to hear that, I hope you can give him the help and attention he needs!
If possible, wounds should be washed with warm water, using an antibacterial soap, if not, you need to clean it daily with a betadine solution ( 50% betadine, 50% water) and put neosporint. If the wound gets infected you are risking the snake getting.
I would leave the snake on plane papaer towels so that it can't get any kinds of substrate, mites or something else inside the wound.
I'm a bit skeptical on the fact that they took it to the vet, the vet would of said something about the wound.
Well, better safe than sorry, I personally would take it to the vet so things can't get worse and to have a firm professional help.
I hope everything will end up well
