Hey y’all, I just got my bearded dragon and there appears to be a bump on her back. Does anyone know what this is? What should I do?

I have some one looking at this for you --- they are better at skin conditions than I

Thanks so much :)
Ok they got back w/ me and this is what she has said

I'm not sure, possibly a small cyst or abscess, we see these on the forum sometime. It doesn't look bad , you can get betadine + mix it 10 parts water to 1 part betadine and apply it with a Q-tip or small cotton bud a couple times a day. If it gets worse have a reptile vet check it out.

If it turns out where you need a vet please use this website to find a reptile vet

If you are in a small town type in a bigger cities zip code closest to you

If you're worried book a vets appointment. These unusual lumps are best treated when small rather than leaving them to grow larger
