white spot on RETF nose

[flybyferns]

Please help! Is this a case of noserub that I hear about, that you treat with neosporin? Or is this some kind of bacterial/fungal infection? The new RETF has been eating and soaking and acting normal....

Could this be stuck calcium powder ?
Is it possible this could be a burn?
Could you post other photos?

yeah, here are some more, this is as close as I could get.

I can't imagine it would be a burn, There is a screen top, and then a ceramic heater at night which is suspended off the cage, possibly calcium powder?? On closer inspection it doesn't really look like it. I guess I shouldn't brush his nose to find out though, eh? Since their skin is so sensitive and all? Hopefully he'll lick it off if that's what it is?

He looks very healthy.
Hopefully he will soak and shed tonight ?
I would give it it another night?
See what others think.
A rub would not be white like this.
I worry about putting neosporin that close to his eyes?

You could email Dr Frye,
I'm thinking he would suggest Silversulfadiazene for a nose rub? Don't know?
You really should the have it anyway. He could expedite the shipping.
The silversulfadiazene is much thinner ... it is used when there is a need for a topical antibiotic and/or anti-fungal
It works more quickly as well.
