hi you have no need to worry this is perfectly normal, tortoises shed their skin in pieces,dont try to pull it. so long as you dont see any signs of redness or infection then i feel sure this is just normal shedding. if you still feel worried then try to post a clear picture so someone else can confirm this for you.
