Just notice this on my chameleon

[Fintalian]

So the other night I was holding my chameleon and I notice that her toe on her back foot was swollen.(I will insert a picture). Should I be worried?

 

[Lennoncham]

Is the toenail missing? Did it get pulled off by accident? She may have an infection in her toe.

 

[Fintalian]

No she still has her toenail.

Oh no maybe it got caught on something, but wasn't enough to pull the nail out? OR if you keep live feeders in the cage its possible she received a bite?

If anything I would keep an eye on it, if its still not going down book an exotic vet appt.

 

[Mr. J hahaha]

It could be gout as well. I would talk to the vet to get ahead of this

 

[Fintalian]

What are the signs of gout?

 

[Mr. J hahaha]

Swollen joints and limbs

Here is a better look at her foot.
