There is no cream. Your turt is going to die. I hope YOU get really sick, and your family tries to find a nice cream to rub on you instead of taking you to a doctor.

Kindly stop the sniping and name-calling, people...

shark23lol, the bottom line I see here is that you want to keep your turtle (so you said). And I believe you because you wouldn't have bothered to post if you didn't.

But, without a picture of the spots, who can even hazard a guess as to what they could be (shell rot? blood poisoning?)? From the kind of diet and habitat you said he has, it's not hard to become concerned and frustrated when offering advice and having it rejected, especially when you tell others what your turtle doesn't need and it's so obviously untrue. Your turtle is the one with the problem, and in an effort to make him better, you should be listening to the suggestions being given.

In all likelihood, the spots are symptoms of an underlying disorder. And by just treating the symptoms, your turtle will not really get better, but will more likely eventually get worse. You spent only $6 for your turtle? I've got 5 and never spent a cent to buy any of them. But they have cost me literally thousands of dollars for their habitats and up-keep.

You want to keep your turtle? Then make some changes and have him seen by a herp vet.
