livingart Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 iodine works well or salt baths twice a day after applying iodine leave turtle out of water for about 1/2 hour iodine ointment like Betadine works quite well or you can leave it and just keep an eye on the wound to make sure fungus doesn't develop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 salt is best start Betadine is an iodine ointment sticks on wound better in a water situation, but won't let salt get to wound salt should be enough to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
