Healing nose rubs?

Ghost425 Aug 20, 2004 04:47 PM

My tegu rubbed his nose all raw in a temp. cage the other day. You can see his teeth from a headon view, but fortunatly it didn't go to the bone. Will it eventually heal over and look ok? He is about a year old.
Thanks!

put it on the injured area once a day or so. It will speed up healing time just like it does us humans.

I agree on the neosporin. The last time I used it was on my savannah's eye infection, looked pretty bad. I knew if we didn't do something soon he'd probably lose sight out of that eye. Putting the neosporin on daily helped him to full recovery in about two weeks time.
