Hi! Not sure how urgent this is, but I decided to post it here just in case.

I have a Ribbon Snake that I acquired in August, and I just recently got him to start accepting f/t silversides. Today I had him out of his cage and noticed that some of the scales along the back of his neck are slightly raised, like a fish with dropsy. There is no skin visible underneath. I was thinking scale injury, because he kind of thrashed around and got stuck behind his water bowl when I was spot cleaning his cage yesterday. I quickly freed him, but maybe it could have resulted in swelling? Just wanted to see if it was anything that needed attention. The area is too small and my snake is too uncooperative for any useful pictures.
