Swollen Gum?

[angeldragon]

Hi everyone!

My adult beardie has a bit of a swollen gum in his mouth that he chews on at times, since it's swollen. Are there any remedies for this that anyone would know of to help it heal?

Thank you!

Too add on how is his appetite? Is he acting normal? The one thing I see with swollen gums is mouth rot so I want to make sure that isn't the case

Yes please post pic of the mouth and gum -- what kind of basking temps does he have ? No stick ons please and what kind of UVB are you using ? No coils please -- a long tube fixture -- where in the tank is the UVB if its a long tube fixture -- top of screen or inside the tank ?

Sounds like a mouth infection, or a cricket/roach stuck him with the spines on their legs , to open his mouth you’ll probably need 2 people to help, use a card to pry his mouth and have the second person take a video and then screenshot the video, it’ll be hard to get a good picture….thats how i did it :/
