broken arm?

[TEGU_JAKE]

My tegu thinks he is an iggy lol. But hes been climbing all over his out door cage and Ive seen him fall a few times, but his right arm is straight out. He is walking funny too. Is there anything a vet can do or I can do to help him out in case it is broke?

What a vet will do is take an x-ray to see if there is a brake. If there is then it would be splited (with lizards it most likly will be set and taped along the side of the body). This really should only done by a vet becuase once its split they will x-ray again to make sure the bone is lined up correctly.

If its not broken then the vet will just want you to keep an eye on it. If his using the limb chances are that he sprained it or bruised it. Try limiting his access to climbing to allow the limb to rest a bit. If tommarow its not being used better i would contact a herp vet.
