Hi everyone I am new to posting on the forum but have been visiting frequently over the last few years. I first realised my veiled Cham had this small growth on his side a couple of years ago. I took him to the vet about a year ago to have it looked at when it grew to a few millimetres. Vet advised me he was in good health and that not enough is known about Cham tumours etc to diagnose and to leave it be as he has reached an above average age and seems otherwise well.. It's now doubled in size he is still acting himself but I am going to take him to the new more experienced herp vet at the same practice next week. I assume it's a cyst as it is soft to the touch and the skin doesn't appear sore or damaged as in images of tumour cases I have seen online. I was wondering if anyone else has any more info on this matter or any similar experiences?
