Hii everyone my boy has an abscess in his armpit? I'm not sure what you would call it on a tortoises lol but around it his skin is ripping and sort of up his neck he doesn't seem to bothered that much by it but it's worrying cause his skins ripping you know? He is supposed to get surgery but I can't afford it right now so I'm saving up. He doesn't really bask under his light, he's sleeping most of the day, he eats quite alot and when he walks around he's up high if that makes sense. He doesn't really walk around his enclosure but when I take him out he sits under the light and walks around my room no problem (I know some people say not to do that but please don't fill the comments with things just about him being out in my room and make them about the actual thing I'm worried about) will be be okay with his skin like that? ![IMG_20240727_162558.jpg IMG_20240727_162558.jpg](https://data.www.tortoiseforum.org/attachments/362/362336-25737208cbce42c3d75d7dd8a930f5ef.jpg)
