Swollen turtle

[omar_00043]

Hello
What is the swelling in the ear of the turtle?
And what should I do for her !!

That's an ear abscess. It will eventually need to be lanced, but it doesn't look like it's ripe yet.

What do I do now?
And how to cure them

 

[Yvonne G]

There is no cure, like I said, it has to be lanced once it's ripe.

Always wondered if an all natural drawing salve could be used on something like this? Like pictured.
