Hi everyone,
This is my first post after being a silent reader for some time.
Need some help on identifying my friend's radiated tortoise which has a lump on the side of its head. My friend is very worried and asked me to take care of the tortoise. He did brought the tortoise to a vet and the vet gave him a gentamine ointment to be applied but to no avail so far.
Could anyone help identify what is it? I have read some prior threads and guess that it might be an ear abscess. Just to be sure please do advise me what is it so I could take care of it correctly. I have attached some pictures below.
Any help would be very much appreciated
Thank you
