Are the eyes swollen too? Does she open her eyes when sunbathing?

Sorry for the late reply.

First, my turtle is cured now. And yes, her eyes were swollen. She was still opened her eyes, but few days after I post this thread Her eyes swelled so bad she couldn't open her eyes anymore.

Fortunately after some research, I found some bloggers recommended Betel Leaves (it's quite common plant in my area, South East Asian and South Asia). It is really worked like magic! If you had any chance to try this, don't feed it to your turtles. Boil about 4-5 leaves and soak the sick turtles to the water (from boiling the leaves, don't forget to cool it down), along with the leaves too. Soak them overnight. The effect may not be seen in 1-2 days through.

Problem solved now. Thanks Steve for the reply!
