Default Flaky Plastron

Hi
Can anyone help me?
My elderly Ibera (60- 70) seems to have a flaking plastron, I can get my fingernail behind bits of it and feels like I could pull bits off .. there is no offensive smell so I am not sure if its shell rot... should I try athletes foot cream.. or pull bits off ..?

I have taken the photos at an angle with the sun to show it up more

She seems very happy otherwise .. the other two I have seem Ok .. they were hibernated in the same box this winter .. it is very hot here 30 degrees with lots of UV (French Alps) and quite dry .
