What does this look like? She's been like this for 2 days now

My girl has a this weird bulge in her neck for a couple days now. It comes and goes and she spends most of her time in her basking spot. She's still easting good tho. She looks healthy besides this bump

Looks kinda like a fat deposit but I haven't ever seen it on a chameleon also I am no expert but does it go all the way away then come back?

Is it on both sides of her neck? Looks like it could be edema, that area is the first place water retention shows.

Yes, she can blow it up like a ballon. I know she eats good and is a little big. I've just never seen this before.

No, it's only on the 1 side. Usually near the middle

You may want to fill out the how to ask for help form. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/how-to-ask-for-help.66/ Take the info you put together to your vet so you can give a good history of your husbandry and not have to think of everything there on the spot. Taking a fresh fecal sample with you might also be useful, just in case.
