The reason honey is used in treating prolapses is because it's a hypertonic solution. At work (I'm a vet tech) we have used water mixed with salt or sugar too to form a paste.

As far as your boa goes, if bone is showing you NEED to get it to a vet ASAP! Honey will not right that, most likely it will need to be amputated.
