Laying on side/back

I just recently noticed my one year old male tegu (Salamence) will sometimes lay on his side. Earlier tonight I noticed him using the bathroom and then rolling onto his back. Has anyone else ever experienced this or know if it’s something I should be concerned about?

Sounds like a possible impaction. My red Frank just went through the same odd behaviors, then a prolapse. Treatment has been fairly easy but we’re hoping it isn’t reoccurring.
