I give her a shot of LA-200 every night. The vet said 1/2cc every day for three days. I feel like she may need a another antibiotic for her eyes. It is hard to if it is just the tissue around them swelling or if there is infection in her eyes. They could just be irritated by the medicine we have on her head. Her eyes were weeping and now kind of goopy. I think I will get some tomorrow. Where we live nothing is open today to get anything. I wish I would have thought of this Friday. Any suggestions as to what to use on her face to clean, for antiseptic, promote healing???? We used "Blue lotion" and neosporin. I am a nurse and was wondering about a colloid dressing which would keep it wet ( it is getting pretty dried out looking)??? It is such a terrible place to have such an injury, right where you breathe, eat, see and hear...don't know how we would hold the dressing down, other than to use tape-ouch!! When neosporin heats up, it runs and got in her eyes and mouth; same with the blue stuff. She just had a big lunch a bit ago and still seems really pooped, which is understandable. What a process this is, I wish we would see improvement soon. She is just still hanging in there. Can't tell if the aspirin worked for pain or not, but we'll use it again just in case. Poop is really runny, we are hoping she is getting enough food and hoping that it's the antibiotic giving her the poops. Thanks for the help.
