Swelling

by Dayanara
(Oklahoma)

My turtle has always loved to be under his log house but for 5 days he stayed ontop of his log house. He is not eating and 2 nights ago he got in his water bowl and stayed there for 2 days last night I was checking on him and when I picked him up out of the water his body was very swollen and pink. I gave him fresh water and food and wet down his entire cage. (he loves mud) This morning when I woke up I checked on him and he was under his log house. He soon climbed on top of the house and all the swelling was gone. Does anyone have any idea what happened to him?
