    Thanks for the link.

    I didn't notice any wounds/rubs on the nose before it got to that point. I noticed this shortly after a time when she got scared and jump all around her transport terrarium like crazy and hit her head on the lid several times. It's a standard plastic terrarium with a plastic grid on top. I've since added a piece of fabric (with air holes for additional air exchange) that I'll stretch under the top the next time I need it.

    I'm wondering if it could be a wound that got infected, or a broken nose. Judging by human standards, it's been this way (with no noticeable change) too long for it to be regular hit-yourself-on-something swelling.

    Someone correct me if I am wrong, but if your calcium does not have vitamin D3 she will not be able to absorb the calcium properly unless you are using UVB lighting.

    I'll investigate that. Thanks.

    Is there any kind of go-to medication for swelling resulting from a hit that I could try. I'd like to know the same thing for bacterial infection related swelling.
