Wooo! Careful of the HOT venom!

David, she wasn't belittling you, she was stating a very obvious fact. (and with no venom I can read) The initial description from the OP said "small wound on belly". That's a pretty ambiguous description, especially with no descriptions in color, condition, or even a picture.

What if (bear with me) the animal died from this wound, and he blames you for not telling him how to correctly treat it? You may be certain it's only scale rot... but what if it were a something worse?

HOTregius only said that when in doubt, seek a vet, because without any further information provided, all you can really do is speculate on the condition.

It's ok to give advice for small first aid when there is little doubt, but it would seem there is some lack in descriptions about this "wound".

OP, why not put up a picture to show exactly what your referring to?
