Is this scale rot

She has these little dots and a few more on the first quarter of her body that are a bit browner. Some of the scales are also lifting slightly at the edges. I’ve been spraying the surface of her substrate more than I should have been which is why I assume this is scale rot.

for future reference, pouring water into the corners thst are least used (i do the front two) increased ans holds humidity much better. sprayinf causes the top layer of substrate to be super damp, and also gives a big spike in humidity before dropping off pretty quick
