Red footed tortoise white bloth

[KSA05]

My red foot tortoise who I have had for 4 years and believe to be a girl as developed a white blotch on her face a couple days after having been soaked and her enclosure cleaned with a substrate change, she also I have noticed has been chomping at the air almost like a struggle yawn , really would appreciate help as I am worried.

Hello!
@Yvonne G @zovick could you take a look please? Ear looks swollen (it's better seen on the second photo).

I agree, ear looks swollen, not sure what marks they are talking about, but enclosure looks too small for the torts size and looks dry.

Please give more enclosure details, humidity, size, size of tort, etc.

More pics of torts ear and spots you are concerned about.

It might be an ear abscess.

Ive circled what they’re referring to @wellington definitely looks suspiciouscould possibly be what Yvonne’s saying.

@KSA05 I don’t suppose you’d mind sharing more information on how you’re keeping them?

What are your temps like night and day?
What kind of lighting&heating are you using specifically? Packaging pics are good if you have any
Do you use indoor uv? If so what kind?
How’s your humidity reading?
What are you using for substrate?

A photo of the full set up would be good if you don’t mind sharing

I already seen the ear and agreed it looks swollen. I thought they were talking about something else seeing they didn't call it it's ear.

Ah ok no worries, I think that’s the white spot they were referring to though, the swollen ear

I was looking at the top of its head. Not exactly white but kinda off looking to me. But not a good angle either to tell if it's color or something else lol
