Sorry to hear that.

Normally when get dropsy, its already late as dropsy is a symptom of internal damage to the fish. U might want to get urself mentally prepared in case ur guy goes to betta heaven soon. What u can at least do it keep it isolated, and ensure clean water at all times, and put salt/meds to keep bacteria population low.

Chances of survival for dropsy is low.
Basic medication would be adding salt. Also, regular water change

Do 100% water change, look from the top, which ever have protruding scales have to go (cull), and keep water clean... add yellow powder good luck
