Hi
my greek tort had what looked like an abscess but according to the vet that didn't treat reptiles though cuz i cant find one that does in the WHOLE city he said it wasn't an abscess. it was not hard enough to do anything about it anyways other than applying garamycin daily but suddenly that whitish abscess looking ball in the side of his face suddenly today i found the bubble/abscess gone and and what looked like pus or blood instead on his face (picture uploaded) i put him in a very clean and cool area to eat now so it doesnt get infected as i try to call another vet that i got his number but he doesn't answer. so i turn to you guys till i get a hold on the vet, what should i do now? what to apply on it? to clean it or not to clean it? what could it be
