Last summer 3 of my WC snakes showed similar injuries. Rick thought it might be scale rot and suggest an antifungal. I used Neosporin AF (their antifungal cream), and it cleared up more with each successive shed. They were pretty well healed when I released them. Here is a scan of what it looked like. P.S. this was done by placing the snake on my scanner rather than a photo, smart person on this site suggested doing that (don't remember who) but it works like a charm for doing snake bellies.
