How long for swelling to go away with bubble foot?

[angyles]

Hello,

I have a chicken that’s had bumble foot in both feet. I’ve been soaking and wrapping with prid. One was mild and seems to have healed without needing to remove the black scab. It just faded and is now more of a brown callous so I’m leaving it unwrapped now and just spraying it with vetericin when I treat the bad one.

The bad one had a giant lump between two toes. After about 10 days of treating, the scab pulled away and it bled a like bit but the tissue underneath looked pink and healthy so I switched to vetericin, and a neosporin wrap. That’s been about 5 days now. It has a scab, but not a big black scab. More of a regular healing scab. My concern is the big lump is still there between her toes. I’m unsure if this is normal or if I need to start over. The lump is hard and I actually think it might be a little bit bigger today than it was yesterday, even though the scab isn’t worse. I’m sure the wrapping is probably irritating it so maybe that’s a factor? Any advice?

Here you go! The lump and pad aren’t hard like they were, just swollen. I’m suspecting I need to start over, but it’s not clear to me like it was the first time. When I pulled the scab there was a fat chunk of gunk attached to it, but it seems like this swelling should be gone after nearly a week.
