Could you please explain the picture so someone can help?

I’ve been treating it for a niacin deficiency, seems to be doing the trick but now it’s appears to not want to put weight through one leg? I was wondering if this could be a new problem or linked to the deficiency.

What type of niacin are you using?

 

[CathieL]

These drops and nutritional flakes. I’m in the UK, unable to find the durver vitamin b complex. I’ve ordered some niacin capsules for their water too. @Miss Lydia

I’ve been giving 50mg orally as it seems to get fed up and leave if over a treat, I’m worried it will worsen if not given orally. Do you think it will be related to the deficiency?

Hard to say could be an injury also. 50mg is only 0.05 ml so give him 2- 50mg a day . Be sure not to shoot it down the throat.

I can’t find a strength of that nature. The one I have is 5ml - 50mg. Can you suggest an alternative so I don’t need to give so much volume?
