I have a Russian tortoise who was being treated for what we thought was RNS but at the last follow up a 1 and 1/2 inch tubelike item was removed from it's throat along with bacterial puss from mouth ( bought at petco 3 weeks prior gas never eaten.). This was our second vet visit and antibacterial shot. The following week he was gasping more but no or little puss so she added an oral antibiotic and did a re worming because the tube may have blocked the dose at the first visit. The vet had no idea what the solid but pliable yellowish/whitish matter was but today a second matter same color and pliable texture was in his mouth and I removed it. It was nit tubular shaped more the size of a dime just oval shaped. Any ideas what it is and what to do. vet has no idea.
