so, i havent been on here in a long long time, but, my tegu was yesterday having a nice soaking in the bathtub when he decided to, as he does when he goes underwater, to kick his face, as though theres something on it, which he also does to get food on it, in any case, he managed so put a little slit in his ear hole, for lack of a better word, and i was wondering, should i be worrying, it isnt bleeding, he doesnt look bothered, he isnt acting up, and it by no means looks infected, i mean, if i should be worried, i do work at a veterinarian clinic, so i could take him in, and hope that if there is something seriously wrong, i could get him looked at, but , i am not too worried, i just want an outsider opinion.
thanks,

i would personally get it check out by a vet cause i have lizards and know how it is they wont look infected till its too late my neighbor lost a beardie last week cause of a cut that looked fine died in 48 hours after noticing something was wrong so yeah just making sure it the best thing to do
