Bearded dragon tail rot? Infected?

[Matteo]

I saw that my beardies tail had a little demp, very small and not infected at all so i started treating it with betadine in water.
couple houres later i see that he bit the little tip off... SEE PHOTOS.
now i dont know if i keep treating it the same way or let it get amputated?

This is what she said
Darn, once they start biting the tail they sometimes will continue. It might be best to put a band aid or gauze on it and check often to make sure it doesn't get bitten more.

I would get some raw unpasteurized honey that's going to kill infection if it starts- the betadine is a antiseptic - you want the honey to kill the infection
