Straighten broken tail

[Vanesssa]

I’m assuming my bearded dragon broke her tail because of the odd shape. It does look a little darker but it’s been like this for over a month so I’m not so concerned about tail rot I just want it to close as it’s painful to the touch. I tried surgical tape but it slid right off any advice?

It looks like it got pinched- does she have feeling in it? I have someone looking at it

It would be good to soak it in a betadine + water mix [ one part betadine to 10 parts water ] daily for about 10 minutes, then apply Neosporin [ not the one that says pain relief ] You might even be able to do this as she sits in your lap if you use something like a small clean jar or yogurt cup to put the solution in and dangle her tail in it if she sits still. Otherwise you can use a small plastic tote to sit her whole body in.
