monax Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi there, We noticed this raw patch of skin on Toby today (photo in line below)...it could be that he scratched himself (he's molting right now) or just banged himself up playing with one of his toys. He's still active and behaving normally. Should we be concerned? Any treatment we can give him at home? We did give him a shower, followed by aloe vera juice. Thanks.

[ATTACH]22536[/ATTACH] Aloe juice won't help with an open wound/sore. You need a topical to use on that area. Go to the pharmacy and cover the wound with this gel. It's not toxic and is very soothing and helps wounds. It won't hurt if accidently swallowed. Use 1x a day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
