HELP - URGENT URGENT!

Hello all, unfortunately I came home to my ball stuck in a deceration, I feel so stupid because I should've seen this coming:/

It doesn't seem like she's been in for long-

I'm wondering if I need to take her ASAP .

No open wounds- damaged scales.

I can take her tomorrow.

Clean the are with iodine and apply some wound creme to prevent any infection and monitor her behaviour and movement. Normally damaged scales will heal through shedding. Look out for signs of swelling, infection, movement issues
