Noticed these growths on my male desert tortoise's jaw today. Symmetrically placed, though one is larger than the other. Where the skin is bulging the scales are parted away. Not sure how long they've been there exactly because we open his house and leave straight for work, and he often puts himself away at night. We only get to hang with him on weekends. Didn't notice these when i was feeding him treats last weekend.
Bug bite? Injury? Allergic reaction? Tumors?
Would love to know what these are and if they require medical treatment.
