Growth between Zeus eyes

I_love_lucy Dec 04, 2007 09:47 AM

I have noticed what looks like a blister between my lizards eyes (on top of his head). What is this? Should I take him to the vet? He just went to the vet about 2 weeks ago. He is acting normal, but if I touch it he gets pretty upset. What should I do?

i say go to a vet. i would say that regardless with blisters because of blister disease but with this being so close to his eyes and brain, i would definitely be a little more cautious.

i had a boy who had blisters on his neck and i treated the outward signs. i thought he was getting better and then i came home one night and most of his skin on his neck had peeled off and he was sitting in a pool of his own blood. he died the next night after a trip to the vet.
