If it's not too close to the mouth, put neosporin on it, without the pain reliever. But if it's too close where it might eat it, it might eat it and I'm not sure if it could make yur beardie sick. If you're afraid it will eat it, just follow the advice above, and watch it to make sure it doesn't get worse. If you see a lot of dirt and stuff on it, just get awet paper towel or something and lightly wipe it. Another thing you could do is put the neosporin on it, while your holding yur beardie, than wipe it off in like 5-10 seconds. It's not as good as leaving it on, but it's better than nothing. If it's on the side of the mouth, a little neosporin would be Ok, i think, because they lick in the front, not the sides. If near the mouth, r u sure it's a cricket? Your beardie might have veen tried chewing on wood or something and scratching its mouth. Good Luck.
