HELP!! bumblefoot gotten worse??

[chickenhawaii]

Hi all!! This is my first post on BYC but i have been using the site for some time to look up concerns etc. We recently adopted 5 production reds and one of them came to us with a droppy comb and watery droppings. I had no clue what was wrong, she was laying fine, eating fine. A couple weeks ago i noticed swelling in her foot and saw what looked like bumblefoot. I attempted to treat it with soaks , Prid drawing salve , and wrapping it. There was never really a scab for me to remove. But overtime her footpad has hardened and she doesn’t want to walk on it and seems uncomfortable even just sitting on it. I don’t really want to cut her foot open but i do feel there is an infection under there causing her pain and discomfort. She still eats and drinks fine, and tries to forage with her sisters. But I’m really worried about the limp

Hello, and welcome to BYC! Could you get some pictures? If there’s no scab, I wonder if there’s something other than bumblefoot going on.

There does seem to be a scab but it hasn’t come to the surface of the skin. I can’t take photos now but i will try to update asap!!

This is her refusing to stand on it. Her other foot in this photo was treated for bumblefoot and seems to cause her no problems

I would say post lots of pictures of the foot, from several angles

The swelling seems to be moving up her foot and the pad of her food is hard! She was walking a little better on it today though

It does look like bumble, but that swelling on her ankle is weird. @Wyorp Rock, can you help?

Should i isolate her to limit movement?
