bumblefoot?

Soak in epsom salts or salt water.

Use your Iodine. You are not going to be cutting into the foot right. Instead you are using a non-surgical approach to get the scab to loosen up and hopefully you can pull the kore out after a few days.

Hii! So I did the iodine + the antibiotic cream I sent on this thread and soaked her
I couldn't find any core tho?
This was her this morning - idk if it's working well
I don't want to soak her whilest the wound is fresh cuz that seems painful
Will it be painful?
Thank you so much for helping
(She's bandaged aswell. I'm rlly hopefully it goes away but I don't think I did it right?)

Looks like it may be more of a surface scab. Did the scab come off on its own?

I'd soak, then dry the foot well. Apply just a light layer of the antibiotic ointment and wrap.

I soaked her in 10 min intervals and then took it off with tweezers, put the ointment on and then wrapped

If there is infection inside, it may take several days to work toward the surface.

I would clean, dry, apply sugardine soltion and wrap every other day until it expels the infection of the scab heals.

You don't have to soak her unless you feel it is helping. On my bumbles, I usually only soak a couple of times at the onset, then I simply clean the wound before reapplying whatever I am using and wrapping. I think less stress on the chicken is better.
