and how can i prevent it from happaning again.
i have high humittidy like 70-80 range and a coconut fiber subterate. the water pool is a pool(is half the tank). the heat is exactly how it should be 84ish at day, 75ish at night, 90-95 for basking during the day.

Soak her in some warm water and gently remove it. It sounds like your humidty levels are fine, try adding a multivitamin to the diet.
