    If you have nail rot, you can use chlortetracycline eye ointment, but it is better to use Yunnan Baiyao. Nail rot must be dried and raised, not water, otherwise it will not be better. When raising the turtle dry, you can wrap it in a damp cloth to prevent it from dying from drought, and clean the damp cloth and feeding container frequently.

    My turtles have also had nail rot and I wash the damp cloth and tank every day. Nail rot ** is very slow, and my turtle is completely cured in about three months.

    Nail rot: **: When the carapace is damaged, bacteria invade the wound and cause the carapace to rot.

    Symptoms: The superficial carapace is decaying, or burrows or even visible muscles, does not like to eat food and rarely moves.

    Prevention and control methods: soak the diseased turtle with 40ppm potassium permanganate solution for 15 minutes, and then gently apply a trace amount of potassium permanganate crystal powder to the lesion of the diseased turtle.

    1.In the early stage of the disease, the symptoms are gray spots on the tortoise shell, and then slowly turn into flesh-colored or red lumps, if not timed**, the affected area will be infected and slowly ulcerated with a peculiar odor, and finally life-threatening. If the wound is not infected or worsened, it can be wiped repeatedly with iodine tincture or 1%-2% hydrogen peroxide, and then applied chlortetracycline ointment (anti-inflammatory) or Yunnan Baiyao (hemostasis), or Baiduobang ointment can be used.

    Once every two days for one to two weeks. If the wound is infected or worsened, the outer skin of the affected area must be picked with a sterilized knife, and the blood or pus must be squeezed out before following the above method**, and the wound must be bandaged with gauze according to the condition of the wound. Once every three to four days for one to two months.

    **During the period, it is not advisable to bathe or soak in water to keep the wound dry.

    2.In the middle stage of the disease, the symptoms are the separation or upheaving of the epidermis of the affected area of the outer nail, and the patient is immobile or refuses to eat. The first step is to wipe a small amount of furazolidone dry powder or fill it with a straw and take amoxicillin tablets (20 mg kg) or metronidazole tablets (40 mg kg) on the affected area if it does not work, and at the same time supplement nutrients such as electrolyte mixture and special vitamins.

    Method of administration: Find a very small container to dissolve the tablets in warm water, then find a straw for oral liquid, suck some (the amount of medicine is controlled according to the size of the turtle), use the tongue against one end of the straw, and insert the other end into the back of the tongue in the turtle's mouth (erect the turtle) to avoid the liquid from flowing into the trachea. If you open your tongue, the liquid will naturally flow in, or blow it gently.

    This method, whether it is administering medicine or supplementing the turtle with various nutrients, will be more direct and effective than the effect of medicated baths and applying drugs and nutrients to food. But the only drawback is that it is not easy to open its mouth, and it can be used with a small non-metallic stick such as a plastic ear plucker or toothpick.

    In the late stage of the disease, the symptoms are that the affected area has decomposed and even penetrated the tortoise shell, and the eyes are closed and the food is stopped, and in severe cases, death. After the second step, chlortetracycline is injected at a rate of 200,000 IU per kilogram of turtle body weight.

    Note: Please refer to the first step for the method of trauma to the head, neck and limbs. Please use potassium permanganate with caution for trauma and nail rottenness, as improper dilution is easy to corrode the outer armor. Early detection and early **, stagnation caused the death of turtles.

When dry-raising, you can use 5% povidone-iodine solution to apply the rotten nail area.
