Hi, this is old man Kujo, he recently turned 6 and he's previously had MBD - in the first year of his life - totally my fault, I had the wrong lighting and I feel bad every time I look at him. His MBD is a thing of the past, though he has recently (in the last month) had a lump appear on his casque. I noticed it after a fall when his cage had been knocked over whilst moving house. He appeared completely fine apart from this - eating, drinking and moving normally.
After looking at threads on here, I'm inclined to think it's papV but I have no idea how he could've got it and why it has just shown up now? He has 2 live plants in his cage that my dad bought - I think from a reptile shop but I'm unsure - maybe it was in the soil? Maybe it was from some food I bought from a shop?
I'm just looking for any ideas people may have. I don't currently have the money to go to the vet, especially if it is papV and there's no treatment for it other than keeping his cage clean and making sure I'm clean before interacting with his cage.
