Actually the tortoise appears at or very near death in the most recent photos. Are you sure it is still alive? Maybe what you are seeing in the neck is the beginning stages of decomposition.
I personally think he cut his legs with his shell and the neck he cut with his nails, another person said he put tape on his baby torts shell in a other post of mine

He does open his eyes but most of the time he’s just sleeping but I can assure he still opens his eyes and he moves a little again and when I give him soaks he still try’s to get out
Hello @Andrew01
What has happened with your tortoise since last Thursday? Is it still alive?

Yes, he's very weak and quite ill.
