HI,
Long story short,
My pet Japanese bantam Sakura has been having an eye issue. Shes about 4 months old.
I first thought she was pecked on the skin of her eye and it would heal up but then i noticed her skin around her eyes in general was red and puffy.
I brought her to the vet and he proscribed her tetracycline and neomycin and polymyxin B sulfates and dexamethasone ophthalmic oinment (a steroid cream).
Since we have been putting this cream in her eye it only seems to irritate it more.
"Her peck bump" popped and alittle blood and puss came out.
Her face if very red and irritated.
I feel so bad like i'm actually making the problem worse.
Today i looked at her again and her other eye now has a bump and now i think its no long "peck marks" im seeing (because we isolated her) and probably fowl pox?
I ruled out fowl pox in the beginning because she only had one bump and no break out anywhere else.
Should i continue treatment?
Here are some pictures of her eye (it was hard to get a good picture because she kept moving:
good eye:
bad eye:
