tail fall off

[Joweed]

ok i got a large male leopard he was having shed issues on his tail and he started chewing at it after a while
it started as a discoloration or almost looked like burns which turned out to be false i had the temp and everything right so i assumed it had to do some thing with the shedding
then he started chewing at it and it looked a little infected but i didnt want to mess with it figuring it would just heal up i keep a pretty clean tank
now its gotten so bad to the point where i cant find info on it i need forum help
just the other day i was thinking about making his tail fall off and start over but i figured id get advice prior to following through with that decision
and well its like he heard my thoughts because a day before my id validated for the forums i woke up to his tail on the other side of the tank its a clean break im just unsure how to go about making it grow back healthy like neosporin or any shit i need to give him to make it right any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Thats a question i have never dealt with before

you can put neosporin on it just make sure it is the plain kind NOT with pain meds in it. When mine dropped his tail I just left it alone and made sure his cage stayed very very clean and it grew back fine.
