    Wet or dry Fowl poxs?

    So it is possible for dry poxs to spread to the mouth? Where the cheesy parts are in her mouth there is a dry pox on the outside- is it possible and or safe to crush a baby asprin , make a paste and apply it topically to the outside pox that is causing her swelling and pain?
