I took my ball python to the vet for RI cause I heard the clicking and he said he couldn't hear and sent me on my wAy. after charging me of course. now it's gotten MUCH worse and he has tiny sores developing in the lower corners of his mouth. I'm trying to find another vet but what can I do for now?

hes got herpies.

i dont know

Definitely find another vet, preferably one that has a lot of experience with reptiles.

Mouth rot may begin with mild symptoms such as increased salivation. Often saliva bubbles from the mouth. Close inspection of the oral lining reveals tiny pinpoint areas of bleeding. the oral lining becomes increasingly inflamed.
In very bad cases the cheesy pus on the mouth is present, and teeth begin to fall out. If it gets to this point, your snake may need surgery.

Treatment involves use of topical and injectable antibiotics. for now, turn up the heat in the tank a few degrees, but not too hot because the snake may get dehydrated. Daily applications of hydrogen peroxide, or Listerine with a cotton swab may help.
