Swollen Limb

jojomonkeygirl Jun 17, 2004 01:13 PM

Puff front left arm has been swelling off and on for about 6 months. The first time it happened I took her to the vet and he said it was just a sprain and he taped it down. Shortly after the tape came off it swelled again...and went down without tape...and swelled...and down...you get the drift. About two weeks ago it swelled and hasn't gone down. SHe has trouble walking on it and when I hold her she keeps that arm down at her side. It's sad. Does anyone have any ideas? I have a picture of it but I can't get it on here because it says I have no space. How can I remove the other pic I have on here?

Either take her to the vet or tape it down so she doesn't move it around too much and see if the swelling goes down. If it doesn't, take her to the vet. As far as removing pics, i think you have to go to the photo gallery and click on something like my pics, or search your name, click on the photo and then delete. there may be an easier way, i don't know, i don't post that many pics.

MBD, but I'm sure you have uvb and suppliment well.

But gout is a possiblity to check into IF the swelling does not stop.

Hope your dragon will be fine !
