See a vet or use typical first aid. Stop any bleeding, disinfect the wound, and bind it. If the injury is a broken bone, then you probably shouldn't deal with it yourself. Take your turtle to a vet instead.


Can a turtles blood heal a human wound?

Can a turtle shell repair itself after being broken?

Turtles have a slow metabolism so if it is a large wound, the turtle may not recover. Small holes and cracks in the shell can heal but the shell will always carry the scar. Treat the wound as you would any other wound. Clean it with an antibiotic and keep it dry until it seals over. One thing to bear in mind is that turtles pump air into and out of their lungs by flexing the muscles at the openings of their shell. If the hole lets the air leak into the shell, the turtle will suffocate because it will cause the lungs to collapse. An air-tight patch over the hole might work but you would need to remove the air that already leaked in. That is a job for a vet.
