One of my Pleurodeles (one male) has got a bad swelling under the left side
of the throat. It is the first time that I see a think like that. The animal
seems to have problems (it open frequently its mouth).
Some weeks ago that animal showed an inflammation of the legs (the legs
were swollen and dark) and I treated it with tetracycline. Than the
inflammation was better but I found that strange swelling.
I don't know what to do. Perhaps it is a tumor.
I hope in your help.
Saverio.
