If you could post a picture that'd help much more. Just keep the cage clean and dry and if it's not too bad she'll heal up on her own.
She's probably not eating due to it being breeding season. My female refused every meal from the beginning of september til two days after she laid eggs on the 14th of December.
Google "gavid ball pythons" and check out the breeder's pages on signs that your female is gravid. That'll let you know.
