    Re: URGENT: Need Advice About Ball Python Swollen Face

What makes me uncertain about his face being injured is that there is no apparent injury, puss or anything inside his mouth or outside. The only issue is that his face looks grossly distorted, and he refuses to eat.
    I vote pushing injury. I kept my adult male bp in a similar enclosure. I moved him to a larger one when he started injuring himself pushing. Likewise, my bp's only injury was swelling.
