Bumble foot

[Sjax]

Update: tonight after more than a month of treatment the bumble plug came out! What a relief! She must have known I ordered scalpels this week. Now to get the wound healed. The infection plug was almost an inch long.

That's awesome. That's the key to doing non invasive soak till ready. Keep it clean and dry while wrapped it won't take long to heal.

Thanks Miss Lydia.
Do you continue to use vetrycin until healed? The wound is closing nicely.
When I took her into my Mom’s suite to visit, I did discover that she is fascinated by TV. Will keep that in mind if I ever have to treat something long term. Thanks again for sharing your wisdom.

If It were me i would switch to an ointment, treat it like you cut yourself

Your preference ! Happy to hear it’s closing nicely! Does she have a special program she likes?

A this time she’s just hooked on Judge Janine and property Brothers. She quacks loudly during commercials.
