Is this bumble foot?

[Kayla_and my ducks_4]

her feet look injured. I don’t know why! Could it be for her trying to fly? She tries to but she slides on the concrete... I feel so bad for her. Is it caused by this?? I don’t let her go on the concrete anymore because she keeps sliding on it. Is there any bumble foot on her feet? Can I put anything on her feet to help? It looks painful

Thanks in advance.

It really doesn’t look too bad, I’ve had some humdinger bumblefoot cases in the past.

You’re right to keep her off concrete. If you’re in Minnesota, I’d imagine you’re having winter weather. Might you keep her inside or a bit isolated so she doesn’t get worse? Weather is bad here in Ohio, so my girl recovering from surgery isn’t missing much by stay in.

I would suggest some neosporin, but not the pain relief kind. And keep an eye on her foot to make sure it’s not getting worse.

When we see anything that even begins to look like bumblefoot, we hop on a program of 3x/day epsom salt soaks.

Please keep us posted!

That’s good to hear! And yes very cold winter weather! It’s freezing outside... last night was -30s.... I can ask but I’m not sure if she can. She’s only 2 months and our boy has been mating her on land instead of in the pool too. Which isnt good. We have 2 other girls and he picks her to pick on. So I will try my best to bring her in if not we will separate her so she can still see her friends and get better! And we have triple antibiotic ointment (basically Neosporin but without the extra stuff) I will definitely keep an eye on her though! Thank you!
