Re: iguana

we need to know more about your set up. Enclosure size, lighting, temps, diet, etc...

Photos would be a great help too.

Re: iguana

Fungus? what do you mean? Does she now have an infection or something on the edge of her nose?

Re: iguana

If the damage is minor you can put triple antibiotic ointment such as neosporin on it. If its more serious you need to see a vet.

When in doubt find a vet!
