Momma my Quad has a mounth issue?? w/pics

just a quick update, momma is still battleing with mouth rot, and although it looks better it still has not totally cleared up. she has been off the antibiotics for 5 days now, so i may need to goto the vet again and see if there is another approach we might try.
i will most likly give her mouth a good clean tomorrow and if the infection builds again we will be off to the vet.

Mouth rot is tough to get rid of if there is even one small pocket of bacteria the antibiotic can't reach. ! I hope she does OK.
 
Update

so momma has been battling with mouth rot now for over 3weeks. her mouth does look better in the area it started but i have a feeling it has just spread out in her mouth now. she has slowed her eating, witch is not a good sign with this girl for sure.
so i have schedualed another vet app, for wed morning with hopes that maybe a different approach will work.
any suggestions???
fingers x'd and thx for the help

:( i dont have suggestions. im so sorry i know what your dealing with. i lost the best Iguana ever to mouth rot (as a 2ndary condidtion) its terrible to watch them not chew and hurt. I hope that she gets better for you soon and makes a full recovery.


-gookluck:)
 
she still isnt out of the woods by any means but the vet was very plaesed with the progress and the area is looking better. i still wish she wold get he old appetite back but all i can do is be patient and help her along.

here is a pic, you can see the swelling is still there but has gone down consideraby

Glad she's still on the mend. :) and yeah, what a look on her face, so maternal. Reminds me a little of my grandma. Lol.
Well you've certainly done your time as far as fussing over troubled mouths, right? So karma should be rewarding you with a carefree chameleon future soon right? - oops, wait, does that mean I'm in for trouble since Ive had it so easy so far??
