hard lump over bum

hi i have an 8 month old corn,im a bit concernerd as she has a hard lump covering the entrance to its back passage.
she has been having some shedding probs this time round,wasnt sure if this problem was linked to the hard lump.
Also she hasnt eaten for 2 weeks but i wasnt concerned about that with the shedding probs.
Ive made moist areas in the tank for her and was wondering how long i should wait before bathing her as i know they dont take kindly to being bathed..

thanks
tom

Sorry about quality pretty usless eh!
Anyway the back entrance isnt closed, the affected area is not completly around her just on the underside,it is light brown in colour,and is hard like a scab.
Thanks
Tom
 
Are you sure you don't have a possible prolapse? I would take the snake in to a vet to be examined, especially if you haven't gotten her to eat. Did the soaking do anything for it?
 
The pic is misleading,i soaked her for 15 mins or so and managed to remove some old skin with paper towel..
the affected area is not something from internal it lies with the scales.
After the bath half of the affected area came off and looks much better now,how long should i wait before i bathe her again as i think this helped a lot,but dont want to stress her too much??
cheers .
 
Did the bath bother her alot? If not, I would do it again within a day if it seems to have helped the area.
 
She didnt go crazy when she was in it but afterwards she was a bit quiet as if she was sulking at me for doing that to her :p
ill give it another go later on today..
cheers
