I have a couple of snakes that use to hiss real loud when they were agitated and I actually thought my albino broke her jaw when she struck at the plexiglass on her cage. My albino's lower jaw was bent up from striking the glass and I took her str8 to the vet after I let her calm down enough for me to handle her. The vet gave her an antibiotic and told me she would be fine and sure enough her jaw eventually straightened out and she was back to being her mean self. They gave my snake the antibiotic to prevent mouthrot and if your snake was bleeding in the mouth that would be something to be concerned about. I would atleast call the nearest vet that does treat reptiles and ask their opinion and if they are too far for you to travel too maybe they could tell you what to do. If there is no vet help around just keep the snakes mouth very clean. Hopefully some one with more experience will respond but if not , this is the best advice I can give you from my experience. I hope your snake gets better.



This is worste case scenerio, your snake will probably bounce back on his own but I would keep a close eye on his mouth to make sure it doesn't get infected.
