Hi Saaniya! @Saaniya

Bumble foot takes a long time to heal. I have found it takes about one month before you can remove badages permanently. Just keep the wound dry and clean, use an antibiotic cream of some sort, and keep it bandaged until the scab falls off on its own.

If removing the badge makes it bleed, then don't remove it for several days. Then daily apply ointment and rebandage with new materials. If you start to see pus, you will need to go back in. After about 2 weeks, you can check it every 3 days or so, changing bandages then. But keep the wound dry, even if you have to keep him locked up. The scab needs to fall off on its own, don't pick at it, keep the foot bandaged till it sluffs off by itself.

Oh and make sure your bandage is tight enough not to fall off, but not tight enough to cut circulation. Feel his foot about 5 mins after you've wrapped it. The foot should not be cold or cool. It should be warm. If it's cool, you've wrapped too tightly.

Yes that scab I noticed about 2 month later cause I remove his last scab 2 months before . And this time and very big so we decided to remove it surgically we need to mark a cut on his skin so we can pull this scab scab is very large that is why we apply that cuts to pull it now after two days we open his bandage so we see that that cuts is bleeding minorly

I have done his bandage about three times the day I remove that scab but now I opened it after two days that mark where crust devlope is fully fine only that cut was bleed as I remove gauze

I wrap him in Neomycin Ointment
But today I applied flour

I agree , j will open bandage now soon after few days later and keep bandaging till I see there's nothing to worry now

Teetee scab is pulled finely and Heald up swelling reduced now I will attach his pic too

Actually it looks pretty good! Don't pull off the scabs. Let it scab over, check it daily, apply ointment, and rewrap with new bandages. Keep it wrapped for about 1 month, the scab should fall off by itself when its healed.

If he continues to get bumble foot, its possible he is lacking in vitamin A. You might feed him a small bit a thinly sliced carrots daily.
