Duck with possible broken or sprained foot????

[charper0208]

Okay so I found my female Pekin limping. Picked her up and brought her inside to check out what was going on. She has a few spots on her foot but I do not think it’s bumble foot. Her left leg is very swollen as you can see in the picture. It is very warm. Do you guys think it’s broke? Infection? What do I do???

Looks like possible bumblefoot to me. Have you sprayed the foot with something?

Yeah she was fine on Friday and when I woke up to go let them out Saturday morning she was Hobbling. The bottom off her foot has some black marks on it but it’s like scabs from previous cuts could not get any kind of infection out but the band of her foot is really really swollen and her foot is very hot to touch

Yes I’ve been putting a salve on it and cleaning it every day. The salve is blue which is why her foot is blue
