    Dark toes, crooked feet

    I am starting to think it’s from circulation interruption, but my vet thinks it’s from the accident. While I was taking pictures for this post, I noticed that the blacked parts were what she stands/sits on, but she didn’t have it a week ago. I’ve had her in a sort of cast for a while so I’m very...

    Dark toes, crooked feet

    So does this mean I should stop her from walking on them/sleeping on them? Her mobility is what I’m unsure of

    Duck bumble foot surgery

    should I keep cutting? When I was poking the edge of the scab I noticed a separation between the bumble and the foot. It looked like I could cut deeper but I was alarmed from the amount of blood she was losing, so I stopped and bandaged her. Will the salt dry the infection?

    Duck bumble foot surgery

    Hello, The pictures I have attached are graphic!! I’ve been looking at posts regarding bumble foot and feel like I understood what I was suppose to do until I was actually doing the surgery. Am I supposed to dig this area out? Every time I would scratch it with the blade it would start to...

    Possible bumblefoot

    Thank you so much for your response! Can I use any drawing salve, or is there a certain brand you recommend? I see people recommending antibiotic ointments without certain toxic ingredients, so I’m wondering if the same can be said about the salve.
