Bumblefoot

[Ashmt51]

I have a pekin who seems to have bumblefoot for past few weeks. The only thing is that there is no scab or anything like you would typically see . Her toe is quite swollen and she has a bad limp. I have been soaking her foot as much as I can and have kept her inside to stop her from walking too much on it. What should I do to treat this? I figured if there’s no wound not to cut her foot and look for a kernel or am I wrong thinking this?

I don’t have any of the bottom but there is no scab or cut on it. I can take one of the bottom later when I am home. I bought her amoxicillin to see if that could possibly help it. I don’t want to cut open her foot if there is no wound and create one if I don’t need to.
