Duck leg/foot pain relief options?

I hate to ask, but can you get a picture of the other side for comparison?

All of my ducks have spots/scabs/pricks on their feet. How do you know if it's bumblefoot?

Swelling, heat, redness and usually a blk scab. And limping. Also post pics if your seeing anything like this.

She is laying down on that side and just got herself fixed so I hate to bother her but I will get a picture of both feet as soon as possible. The joint right above the foot is swollen and some of the digits (?) between her foot webbing are swollen as well. It's like it's her entire foot

Maybe an injury but getting a good pic of top and bottom of her foot will help.

I picked at the black scabs because my daughter thought they might be thorns, but they weren't. Their feet are forever pricked up because they're all over the place roaming

Can you feel anything like a sticker or splinter look closely. I see swelling but not really any scabby area. Left side next to her one digit is that a scab or dirt?

It's hard to keep them from it. living in these mountains mine are forever walking on rocks big and small. I'd start Epsom salt soaks put warm water into a bucket mix the Epsom salt into it and put her in both feet and legs [its easier that way] and keep her in as long as she will tolerate. You'll have to hold her I drape a towel over mine with head poking out. You don't want her drinking the water since ES is also a laxative. After you have done this for a few days post another pics right after soaking so we can see a really clean foot.
