Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows much about bearded dragon anatomy. I took my 7 month old boy to the vet yesterday as I suspected a respiratory infection. He's been off his food for weeks, lethargic and then I heard crackles when he was breathing so I went straight in. The Vet found no discharge and the swab was clear (no bacteria). The thing she couldn't explain was 2 swellings at the back of his throat measuring about 1cm across. They are yellow and look like fat pads or swollen glands. Peru is apparently overweight but the vet has never seen this before, even in very fat dragons. My vet is very good but is still learning about reptile anatomy and treatment so if anyone can shed some light on this I'd be grateful.
She injected some fluids and Vit B and C and I've upped the temps. in his enclosure a little.
He seems a bit happier today - no throat sounds but still not eating.
Don't have pics of the lumps seeing as they're down his throat but this is Peru

This is when we came home yesterday. He's a bit upset!
