HELP

So my gecko had mouthrot. Thought i got rid of it, and he still doesnt really have any(i dont think. Doesnt look like it) He had the normal mouthrot face swelling. Nothing to bad. Today i go to feed him and the whole right side of his face is swelled and red! Like a little marble in his face. His other side is completely fine. What should i do???

well ive never experienced any my geckos with it but i would certainly be taking it to the vet if you haven't done so already!
hope the little guy turns out fine tho

Yep, it's time for a vet visit

If anyone knows of a over-the-counter cure for mouthrot, please post.

I know of nothing.

i have heard of people treating mouth rot in snakes with betadine solution. however, mouth rot can actually be just a presentation of many things (stomatitis, trauma, upper respiratory inflammation, even MBD can cause mouth rot like symptoms) so i would suggest going to a vet before doing any at home treatments.
