Mike is correct, you should get this python to a vet as soon as you can. If this is a skin infection, Tylan or tylosin, will very likely not have any effect on it. It has a very narrow spectrum of bacterial activity and is almost exclusive to the treatment of RI's caused by Mycoplasma bacteria. Mycoplasma has been implicated as the cause in a number of cases of chronic RI in boids, however, tylosin will work well only if the causative organism of the RI is Mycoplasma. Otherwise it will usually be ineffective in resolving any other types of infections. Please let us know how things progress.
