My female water dragon i think has mouth rot!
I havent inspected her carefully lately and today noticed a lump on her chin! I opened up her mouth and it was mucusy around her one side of her lip, and some of her teeth are missing on the same side (meaning it is in the later stage of mouth rot..which is terrible). Everything in the cage is right, and she eats normally. I know a vet is in order asap! but i will need to wait until monday and i need to know if anything will stop it from spreading or from getting worse. If there are anyways of beginning treatment please let me know
please this is urgent
thanks a bunch

flush out the mouth with water or betadine. remove any (cheesy) caseous material. after, use a swab and rub on neosporine. do all this every one too two days.
