Hello,
I've this red eared slider turtle since 6 years or more.
Recently, I've seen that her neck is swollen.
Let me elaborate more with youtube videos of my turtle and a photo of nearly identical case of it.
Here are two videos where I was cleaning it with my mother in the sink.
You can notice that her neck is so tall and extended and it wasn't like this before.

And here is the photo I mentioned earlier about the identical case.

Plus, it have this thing "excess meat because of the swollen neck" (But a little, not as excess as it appears in the photo)

On another note, she has been doing this movement and I don't know what it mean by it.

- What is wrong ?
- What wrong I did that caused this swollen neck ?
- How to rescue it and help it to retain the original health it had ?
Thanks in advance for your help and care.
Best Regards,
Hesham
