Concern (bump on tail)

[Psykittie]

Hello all! I’ll start this post off by mentioning that I have an appointment for my beardie Lewis for this upcoming Friday.
I would have brought him sooner but I’ve moved about two times this year and it’s been extremely chaotic. It’s been a few months he has had this, wondering if anyone could bring any insight to what this could be before I go.
I’m still going, because I want him to have a full checkup.

So worried it’s tail rot…
Thank you all for reading!!

Not sure what that is let me have someone take a look -- vet appt NO enemas please ---

Beware of vets giving enemas to your dragon | Beardie ER

Just a warning about this because there are at times very bad reactions afterwards including beardie dying within a day to a week . Some vets give an enema when a dragon is going in to brumation and not pooing during this time, not recognizing that beardies rarely poo during their " sleepy "...

Here is the reply
Was there ever any type of injury there, even a slight cut ? Whether there was or not that could be a cyst or abscess so it's good that you'll be having it checked out by a vet. Hopefully nothing too serious !
I was thinking the same thing cyst or abcess or possible injury

To my knowledge no injury occurred there, I had wondered the same from possibly his glass surfing. Never seen a cut there or anything, recently he had a cut on his foot but I treated that right away and he was fine from that. As for the tail, it’s so mysterious. If it’s a cyst or abscess that’s a bit scary still but not as bad as tail rot/cancer which I’ve been so nervous about.
Next Friday cannot come sooner!!
Thank you kindly for your response
