You need to ake im to the vet now, do not wait. If you thought his neck or any body part was broke you should have taken him immediately! Im am sure he is in alot of pain.

This is NOT something you can get from the Internet. You need a vet...immediately.

Money's tight?? This is an animal that needs veterinary care!! A good vet will work with you. The longer you put this off the harder it will be to fix. To deny an animal basic veterinary care is illegal in all 50 states.
Costs vary from state to state. My vet charges $28 for an office visit and whatever else is needed is extra. Some vets it's $80 just to get through the door with an exotic. Regardless...your iguana needs help. Now.

that's very very good, but please, dont wait so long to take him to the vet, it could be the difference between life and death!
