The lump on the abdomen is corn starch. Had a muscle or something come through during the molt. It seemed to have blocked the bleeding already but wasn't gonna risk leaving it
She ended up passing away 2 weeks back unfortunately. That bad molt never left her, you can see even in this picture that her carapace looks more matte than metallic glossy and her abdomen is relatively short haired for this species. She did well to last as long as she did, but Unfortunately there's not much you can do with bad molts
