Okay, so maybe I'm paranoid but I wanna try to be proactive on things. This is my little guy's back feet... does one of his toes on front and back paw look swollen..? I have other pictures as well..

In one pic it does the other not really - shedding will cause swelling - I would not advise giving a cold bath tho -- or do you have a mesh hammock in the tank? We see alot of swollen toes / feet from them getting them caught in the mesh-- make sure your using a good UVB like a long tube fixture please no coils -- a good UVB prevents alot of health issues --

No hammock because I was worried he'd get his nails caught in it or something. I'll give cooler bath, I do believe he is about to shed his feet, his arms shed a week or so ago. So if he is shedding (if, ima keep up on it all) the slight swelling would be Normal?
