New Russian Tort Possibly has shell rot..? Please help!

[kasva.118]

I recently got a Russian tort and he's very active, but I noticed his shell is peeling on very small parts and on the underside of the shell, he's got a white spot, almost like exposed bone? It was this way when I purchased him but I didn't think it was shell rot until I looked it up to make sure he was okay. I know I have a 14 day period to give him back, but I don't want to! He's so active and cute and I'm scared of what will happen to him if I do take him back.
Could I treat this at home with some chlorhexidine or iodine solution?
Thanks in advance!!

I don’t think it is shell rot but I’m certainly no expert in this problem. Russians are not prone to this, I would wait for other members to chime in. If it is, you can treat it with cheap athlete’s foot cream from the pharmacy.

Thank you so much!! I was looking at videos and some Russians look like this, maybe just their over activeness?. But I will wait and see, thanks again!

I’m certain that it doesn’t have shell Rot.

It's just old wear and tear. "She" would benefit from nice long daily soaks for the next few weeks.
