I don't think so either, it is continue use of it.

At the moment I do not have epsom salts or iodine(I will go to the pharmacy) so for substitutes for right now I give my duck a warm salt bath (iodide salt), then after that I use hydrogen peroxide(when I used it on the ducks foot I saw foaming) finally I put bacitracin on its foot.

Good start. Salt water is very good for treating infections. Just don't let her drink it. Miss Lydia has a small bucket she uses to just stand the ducks in for soaking feet and legs. I use wet compresses wrapped around the legs, or a flat bottomed bowl.

One of the forum members kept using saline solution for treating some wounds and found it worked quite well. But for bumblefoot, the iodine seems to really help after a good soaking.

I am trying to think of something people usually keep in the kitchen that might help until you get some iodine. . .

That would be a good idea.

I got the iodine and I poured some on her foot(just now) so are we on the right track?

Hard to say how does it look? is it still swollen and look like there is infection? and is it bumble foot? or broken pulled out toenail? using the iodine may not heal it up over night. But from what I've read you aren't to use the iodine a lot maybe every three days. Again a pic would help a lot.
