Hi. Don't give him anything for internal parasites or anything yet - wait to see what the vet says. The skin scraping will be to test for mites - if there are mites the vet will prescribe something. Keep an eye on him after the fall - it sounds like he's ok. Maybe take a box to put him in another time as this happens too often - hamsters falling off vet tables - not your fault.
