Swollen Elbow

In the last couple days my leo's elbow joint has changed, it started to look more like a knee. He hasn't fallen or done anything else that I know of to dislocate it, although that could be a possibility. He's already being treated for internal parasites and MBD, and now this. Last night he was trying to get into his hide box and flipped over on his back, and I had to help him turn over. His vet is off work for the next week, so I'll be contacting another vet for his opinion, but was wondering if anyone else here has ever had this problem with swollen joints.
Thanks,
Boomer

swollen joints are a symptom of MBD. The MBD may be getting worse. I hope he has liquid calcium for treatment.

Yep, he gets liquid calcium every day. I had posted a thread a while back asking about dosage, my vet said 3-4 drops every night, so that's what I've been giving him. He also doesn't seem to want to eat, so I've been giving him mashed-up dusted crickets with a droppper.
Thanks for the info.
