Ripped Scales?

[Oliver_the_BP]

You're not talking about extensive scale loss, then, are you? Just those little spots? And it's not increasing?

I would not personally have bathed him in Betadine, just applied some diluted Betadine to the areas in question.

What kind of antibiotic cream did you use? That's possibly what caused the loss of the scales, & they will likely stay gone, like scar tissue.

(& yes, he IS a cutie!)

I believe I used neosporin on his infected scales. A few websites I read said bathes would work for mild rot. Of course I don't expect the scales to grow back, I was curious if there was anything I can do to make sure he's 100% content and healthy.
