This is a non-descript sign of an ill turtle. Find a herp vet and make an appointment. Re-evaluate your husbandry.

For vets, www.arav.com, their link; herpvetconnection and referals from your local vet clinic.

How is your turtle set up? What is the water temperature and do you have a basking area for him etc? Can't even begin to guess (which of course without taking him to a vet is all that we can do) what could be wrong with him.

I agree with the other person's post. It is a generalized indication of a health problem.
