I have been fighting ongoing bumblefoot in my Orpington - it gets better, scab disappears, then weeks later, a limp, scab is back. Draw it out, try to dig it out, soak in epsom or hibecleans (sp), Vetricyn (sp), neosporin, gauze, vet wrap, etc., rinse repeat. Can never get a plug - always soft and squishy like the inside of a foot when I pull the scab off. I push and squeeze from every angle and nothing. Sometimes it bleeds a bunch (not enough to kill her, but enough that I can’t see what I’m doing and just put pressure on it / re-wrap).
Back at it again except this time I notice it smells like an infection. Like pus, even though there isn’t any, and her foot is a bit swollen and warm (also has a limp - the foot in question is on the left). I have just about every antibiotic except Cephalexin which gets here Wed. Anything else to give her that won’t have a reaction w the Cephalexin later in the week? Fish Mox?
