Hi I have had my leopard gecko for almost 2 years now. I noticed a day ago that my gecko has a swollen foot and it kind of goes up his leg a bit. I don't know if it is broken or not! Please help!!!!!

Is he walking on it? When is the last time it shed? Could there be old shed on the limb cutting off the circulation? Do you have a picture.

Since we can't see the lizard we can't diagnose it. If it isn't a result of retained shed I would definitely make a vet appointment to have it looked at.

It is not from shedding he hasn't shed in about a month. He sorta walks on it. Sometimes it looks like he is limping. I will take a picture and add it sometime today.

Here is a picture of his foot.

Is it the one that is on the bottom that is swollen? (geckos left front?) If possible try to get a closer picture of the affected foot, maybe hold him and have the foot going around your finger so we can see it better...?

Yeah. Get him to a vet. It could be broken, or it could be something else entirely. If we give you the wrong advise, it could really hurt him. Only your vet will be able to tell you for sure what the problem is and how to help him.

Yeah I'm going to talk to vet tomorrow. So when I find out I will post whats wrong.

So I believe he has metabolic bone disease. SO I don't know whats going to happen I'm doing everything I can.
