Gout, or Bacterial Infection? *gross pictures*

[Dragon-Keeper]

Heres the site telling of the gout I think he has, it says theirs no cure but I think I might be able to slow it down by getting more variety into his diet. I am trying baby food and he likes the carrot kind a bit, I ahve to try the others when hes more hungry.
Heres the gout info:

If anyone can help me in any way, that would be great. I need to take him to a vet but I dont know which vets will treat him right now ( I know, shame shame)

He hasnt shed in over a month, I dont know if it is because he is sick or what...

Welcome to the wonderful world of CWD ownership. You're in for a long ride.
You need to get the animal to the best herpvet possible within a reasonable distance. Start by calling a local vet and asking who in the area he would recommend (if he himself does not see herps) for reptiles. There is o getting around it anymore---he needs to see a doc

You North or South of london??? Just noticed your Canukian too! Windsor(LaSalle), has a good herp vet. But if you're 1hr away from london probably be about the same distance.

It took a fallen-off toenail to convince my mom (insert bad word here) But! She finally called the vet and were taking him wednesday.

The toe the nail fell from is completely scale-less on the end and on the bottom. He is not eating and is very very skittish, he flicks me when I put the polysporin on, so he is obviously in pain. He is making me pretty sad...
