There are several medications used in snakes for URI. Baytril is commonly used. Cultures may be needed to choose the correct antibiotic.
Usually we will anesthetize a snake with gas anesthesia for minor surgeries.
Always contact an experienced reptile vet for treatment. A good place to start is www.herpvetconnection.com
