Hello. Today I noticed a white spot on the top of my Hermann's shell. At first I thought it was pee, so I gave him a bath and tried to wash it off. It was impossible to wash off, so I'm quite sure that it's something else. Could anyone please help me and identify what this is? I'm worried that it's some kind of rot/disease or damage. Thanks in advance!

It looks like a very slight abrasion. If it were my tortoise I would keep an eye on it, but wouldn't worry about it.
