I have a pekin duck that I've been nursing a bumble foot but now she has a new problem. She is limping really bad. Can ducks sprang thier ankle?

Definitely a swollen toe. The bumble foot looks fairly early and could cause the limp. Is the vet an option? I got antibiotics for mine and she stopped limping in about 7 days.
That is the end of a bumble foot

Soaks in warm Epsom salt water may help with swelling . Can we get a better pic of bottom of the foot? Maybe this is an injury. No drinking Epsom salt water it also works as a laxative.
Yes, is this one better, the top of her foot is really swollen

see how swollen her foot is on top, she had gone through shop much.
 
Looks like either an infection or an injury does her skin feel warmer on that leg and foot than the other one ? Not sure if this is bumble is that an injury like a cut on the right side of middle toe on the bottom of her foot?

She had a small bumble there but still you see right above that. It's where her ankle is the bend. It red with no sign of lasseraion. It does have fever . Can ducks have a fever? Her lil duck bill seems very warm when she was laying on my chest. Her bill was on my cheek ?
