Mark on chameleon skin

[Grasstrees1]

When feeding my bearded pygmy I noticed a beetle grub had wrapped itself around the chameleon's tail. I got it off and then noticed limpet shapes on the tail like white blisters. I assumed it was the skin reacting to the grubs bites.

This evening and two weeks later I notice another of these limpet blister shapes on the side of the body and it appears that the area around this lump is reacting. I have looked through an eye glass to check that it isn't a parasite or something but it appears to be part of the chameleon's skin. It's like a white head pimple.

Has anyone encountered this before and if o what should I do?

Thanks

Discovered cause. A mite on the body which has now been removed....

Thanks for posting the answer to the problem.
You never know how many people can be helped in the future because you took the time to add the answer.

I don't know much about mites though I recall reading that the skin irritation they cause can lead to fungal or bacterial skin infections.
Do you now have to take measures to eliminate mites from the enclosure?

I have bought callington mite spray and will clean the enclosure thoroughly as I have noticed others. While I was able to sweep them off the chameleons with a hand lens I'm not sure i have got them all.
