Question

Swelling hi Ive had my baby chameleon since October and recently he developed swelling in front of his left eye. its this reddish sack that is blocking his vision. he has been having problems with eating and moving because of it. we don't have an exotic vet anywhere near by. Is there any antibiotic or medicine i could put on it or something?? plz reply quickly!!

Answer
Skykam, the pic is a bit blurry but from what I can tell that needs to be lanced, drained, and perhaps treated w/ antibiotics. You need a vet. Where are you located? Many vets will treat reptiles even if they don't call themselves an exotic vet. They should at least be able to refer you to someone.
