Thanks for reaching out about Foring and including a photo. This appears to be a pigmentation change and might be associated with molting. Recommendations are to monitor for thickening, if appears to be bothering her, a veterinary visit should be scheduled. Application of pure aloe vera in a thin layer can provide some anti-inflammatory treatment and should be safe if a little is ingested. Good luck.
