Joe...bacterial infections are characterized by lumps/abcesses if left untreated become systemic and fatal to ig. Usually a round of antibiotics & possibly lancing the lump is all it takes to clear it up.Its a very common problem. Its hard to say without seeing her..good thing they're clearing it with the vet. I wouldn't purchase her until she is completely done with the prescribed treatment. I wouldn't take on that kind of stress/ put her through the stress of a 'new' owner trying to handle her when she's sick/or needing medication. Is she spayed? Iguanas make great pets
Come on back...lots of people here with good information!
Good luck
