Help iguana has bulge on jaw
 

Hi my black chested Honduran female has been put into separate cage from male due tue him being overly aggressive when mating and broke the females right arm it's been about 3 weeks since the arm was broken I tried setting the bone with splint shes not walking on it but now I've noticed a huge lump on he left lower jaw and she has been very lethargic and has lost most off her appetite it also look like it's somewhat uncomfortable for her to bite into food any advice or ideas on what this is or how I can treat it unfortunately I cannot afford to go to the vet and my local reptile shops cant take her and also dont know what to do for her

Broken bones and lumps sounds a lot like MBD. A qualified exotics vet can diagnose this. You can find a qualified herp vet here:

This may sound harsh, but having sufficient funds for care -- including vet visits -- is a prerequisite for responsible animal ownership. Find the funds for a vet visit, and set up an account for ongoing costs, or do not keep animals.

Sell the male and use the money for a vet visit for the female.

This!

If you don't have funds for care, and a pet store won't take her, what are your plans for her now? She needed to see a vet three weeks ago, and has been suffering a bone fracture.

This is more harsh than John's correct statement, but if you can't afford vet care, and no one will take her, perhaps humane euthanasia is the kindest thing you can do for her at this point.

I like Melinda's idea of selling the male and using the funds to treat the female. I would sell her also once her condition improves because she may have future vet needs and she needs to live with someone who can afford to take care of her. Some of the spiny tail iguana species have become endangered because of shrinking habitats.

Thank you for your help I've decided to sell the male and take the female to the vet

Wise choice, if you can sell him in a timely manner. Please follow up here, when you get her to a vet.

I've just sold the male earlier today to a local reptile store and I have a vet appointment for monday

How did the vet appointment go?

The vet said that it is an abscess from a bite from the male she was able to cut it open and clean it out on monday she also said that she'll make a full recovery and once she is fully healed my local reptile shop said they would take her I dont know if I'll be able to take her to the vet again so I figured that would be best for her
