Knee issue

[dinoguy23]

Hello, new member here. Have had my Jackson’s chameleon for almost a year. He’s about a year and 2 months old. Recently developed this spot on his knee. Wondering if anyone has any advice before I bring him to the vet. Thanks!

Hello and warmest welcome . I also have a Jackson’s. Aren’t they simply amazing?

I’m not sure about his sweet little knee myself. I’ll tag some people with a lot more experience to chime in and see what they think. @MissSkittles @Beman

Thank you! Yes they are amazing. Here is a picture from his most recent shed. He is the sweetest boy.

Not sure if it could be a fungus like CANV. You might want to get a biopsy done to rule it out.

Hi and welcome. I’ve no idea what that is and agree with @kinyonga that a vet visit is needed.

I am not sure and Jackson's just aren't my strong area. I differ to @JacksJill for anything health related with these little guys.

Is there any way he could have been close enough to his basking bulb to get a burn? I only suggest that because it's black. If not then a biopsy will be the only way to get a solid answer.
