about 3 months ago my crestie is having this type of wounds I almost have had to remove everything sharp and/or irritable for his skin on the enclosure but he keeps bumping into stuff (I don’t know where), I don’t know how to proceed, I’m thinking of changing him into a tupper to see if is really him bumping into stuff or is something else, does anyone have another idea how to proceed?(I took him to the vet already and he told me only to remove any sharp object in the enclosure)

Do you know how often he gets these wounds? Is it possible that he's rubbing hard on something when he's shedding? Sometimes geckos shed very fast during the night and you may not even know it's happening. Also some geckos just keep rubbing on something out of habit. See if you can catch it rubbing on something. It may be a bad habit it has started.
