Strange behavior

[kreaturekeeper]

Hello, I have a young ball python that I have had for a year and a half. She has always been a good eater and very healthy. She stopped eating about a month ago but heard that's common and didn't worry. She ate on Wednesday again and all seemed good. I was going to handle her on Sunday and she was very grumpy coming out of her tank(not like her) and when I touched her side she flinched away from me. It was strange so I left her alone. I went to take her out tonight and she is even more sensitive no matter where I touch her :S almost like it hurts her. I have no idea what coul be wrong..
Please contact if you have any ideas or advice
Thank you
