Great to hear your snake is coming around! Keep an eye on that bump. It may go away and return in a different spot, sometimes looking like a worm, which is what it would be.
I have a w.c. YT Cribo that had bumps under her skin that were worm like. They'd be there one day and gone the next only to resurface in another spot. I lanced her skin and pulled one out. It was a whiteish round worm looking parasite, nasty! I pulled a few out from her skin and it seems there is one more, but I have yet to get him/her.
I was told that wormers won't kill them and I've seen these worms live through Ivermectin, Panacur, Flagyl. I did put a dab of Ivermectin on one worm that I pulled out and it died immedeately. Good luck with your BT. Post a picture if you have one.
