Shell rot appears as black or dark green patches that have eaten away parts of a hermit crab's exoskeleton. It most often occurs on the legs, but may also affect claws and the body. It is unknown whether shell rot can affect humans, but it may spread between hermit crabs. There has not been a lot research conducted on shell rot, but it may affect other crustaceans such as lobsters. Hermit crabs can free themselves from shell rot by moulting.

Established patient office or other outpatient visits â CPT codes 99211-99215.
