I have a girl with bumblefoot. Would someone give me the step by step instructions of how to treat it with Prid instead of surgery. Her foot is a little swollen and surprisingly she isnt limping but I know it needs taken care of ASAP.

Thanks in advance! :love
 
This is the method I use most if it's too large for topical treatments to be effective. If it's very small you may be able to use an ointment topically and wrap the foot to protect it until it resolves. That usually only works on the very small lesions. If it's larger I do this way first: https://www.tillysnest.com/2015/12/non-surgical-bumblefoot-treatment.html/?spref=pi
If that method is unsuccessful then the only option may be surgery, every case is individual.
 
Thank you all...

What I did was soak her foot for 5 minutes (Im wondering if I should have done it for longer). Then We applied a nice glob of Prid drawing salve and placed a piece of gauze on it then wrapped it with that non sticky wrap. I guess I will repeat this daily until the scab loosens up and I can remove it and the pus kernel.

After the kernel is removed and the hole cleaned out, should I apply a good amount of Neosporin (without pain relief) into the hole and keep it wrapped until it heals?
