Hi, My boa has developed a lump about 5 inches down is body from his head. It is located on the side of body right where his belly meets the upper patterning. The lump is inside his body - no outward signs of anything.

I have a scheduled a vet visit for September and was wondering what I should allow as far as treatment. I assume they will need to xray it??

Just not sure and am a bit worried about him. He acts fine and he is a big boy. He is about 7 years old now and over 6ft in length.

Any suggestions on what I should expect at the vet. I am just leery of exotic vets and don't want a bunch of unnecessary treatments or test.

Thank you
