My baby Leopard Gecko seems to have a spinal injury or a muscle spasm. His back is arched at a strange angle and his spine isn't straight, he's been like this for a couple of weeks now. Is there any kind if treatment I can provide for him?

This could possibly be MBD. Do some research on Metabollic Bone Disease and see if that sounds like yours.
Is there any way he could fall from a high place?
You need a vet, regardless of if it's a reptile vet or not.

he might have a calcium deficiency...i would get his to a vet that sees reptiles. A specialist would be the best.
