Bumble foot

[-Flash-]

Could you use iodine instead of ichthamel? And can you just bathe the foot in strong salt water?

Forgive me, I asked this question on another's thread.

Photos would help. You said it's a chick, not common to see bumblefoot in chicks, so how sure are you on the diagnosis?

We are 100% sure it gad rhe scab and everything

I’ve never used iodine. The ichthamel is a drawing salve so it helps draw out the puss and infection. I’m not sure about the salt water… I don’t believe epsom “salt” is actually salt. I would do a little more research on that.
