    My advice is take it to a qualified vet. I can see the spot you speak of, but I cannot see how serious it is. It could be just a normal marking, I just can't really tell for sure. I cannot see any pus oozing from this spot, but if there is indeed pus, then you need to see a vet.

    And I will back up what John said, you really can't trust pet shop employess to give solid advice in most cases, and thats not just for amphibians, it goes for reptiles, fish, inverts, birds, etc. Most don't have any real experience or training in the field of exotic animals. Of course there are exceptions to the rule, but you generally don't find these people at Petco or Petsmart.

    It is puss...unless they bleed white, then I guess it's blood. Here's the problem with taking her to a vet:
    My partner has had white's since she was little. One of her white's got a cut on it's leg and she took it to several specialists. All of them said there was nothing that could be done for a frog because they absorb everything through their skin, thus it can't be treated.

    The thing about this stuff I got is that it's supposed to have the nutrients needed to help reptiles and amphibians get the "critical nutritional support [needed] during stressful periods for your pet." To me, this means that the nutritional support provided may help her heal. What do you think???
