Any help or advice would be appreciated

The soaking should help if the oedema is from any sort of toxicity. Which could have easily occurred from where it was shipped, during shipping, or where you purchased it. Soaking in spring water can also yield results. Bloated african clawed frogs can recover well with a soak in epsom salt. I would try soaking in spring water with epsom salt for a week or so to see if symptoms improve. Make sure the water is "frog warm" and try soaking for 30 minutes daily. A word of caution though, an oedema can also be a symptom of kidney failure, which unfortunately, there is no cure. Only time will tell, but I wish the best of luck to your pac man.

Need better more clear pictures.

This is not an Ornate. It is an Albino cranwelli. Edema is actually a fluid buildup not bloating caused by air. Bloating from air can be gases from bacteri or parasite infections. Please note that when annoyed or feeling threatened they puff themselves up with air to look bigger.

Get some better pictures up and give some more information on how the frog was housed before you bought it.

The frog was at petco kept on moist coco fiber with a water dish that I doubt it could crawl into, the bubble gets bigger when it's provoked but is always there, I got him earlier today so not much that I've observed has been a relaxed frog I have a better picture as far as the salt goes how much should I add to a bath?
