Bumblefoot help!

[guess_what]

Poor Tippy can’t catch a break.. first a rat chewed her foot as a baby so she is missing a couple toes, and now she has a bumble on that same foot.

Photo series progression of discovery, after cleaning/pus removal, and from today’s dressing check.

My question is: Is this thing actually healing or does she need another go at removing the infection? It’s been a couple of weeks since first discovery at this point, with a second serious cleaning and pus removal since we didn’t get it all the first time.

Thankful for tips from more experienced eyes!

I’m so sorry to see that Tippy is having troubles with bumble foot. Sorry you haven’t gotten a reply sooner, also. Tippy sure is a cutie, how is she doing?

Bumble foot is tough to treat sometimes and it can take quite a while to heal in a lot of cases. What have you been doing to treat?

Is the scabbed up picture with the blue sleeve the most recent one? To me it looks like it’s getting better, but how does it look today?
