It looks like a severe niacin deficiency. How old is she? I'm assuming Pekin? What feed is she on? I would get her on Niacin immediately. At this point it needs to be given directly over treats that you watch to make sure she eats or orally with a syringe if you know how and are comfortable with it. Diluting it in water at this stage will more then likely not be giving her enough.

@Dulzura I agree with @AstroDuck. Has your vet seen her?

She is almost 9 years old, she is a mix breed of pekin, she is eating poultry feed, lysovit syrup with cerelac, tomatoes, bananas, paedia care syrup for electrolytes, rices.
Please suggest me best product for niacin and dosage.

Yes vet also saying the same issue but he only prescribed me to give her paedi care syrup and 2 drops of lysovit directly.

If you can get a b complex vitamin liquid or pill form. Liquid dose is 1 ml. Pill form make sure it has at least 100 Mgs of niacin in it.
do you know how she injured her foot? These can be human vitamins too if that’s all you can get.

Alright
I don't know how she injured her paddle she is all the time sitting with me as she is a handicap
She is now standing finally but still bending her paddle but i see some improvements.
I always tried to give my 100% but I don't think I'm giving my best .
Pray for her hopefully she recovers soon.

She’s hungry and that’s always a good sign. Such a pretty girl too. You can also make a boot for her taking some foam cutting to size of her paddle then wrapping in some type of tape Coban or vet wrap etc lay her paddle on top then use medical tape or vet wrap to wrap her foot to the boot this will keep her paddle flat and in normal position while it heals.
