Other reasons for swelling besides bumble...what should I do with this?

[Miss Lydia]

I think treating it as bumble and soaking and trying the prid first is the way to go. Once you treat and wrap that should offer enough padding that hopefully, it won't be too painful.

I just got back from taking my girl to the vet where we had an x-ray and blood work (which is not back yet). It's not bumblefoot or a fracture. Lots of inflammation in the joint but the vet couldn't determine why. He gave me an antibiotic and pain meds so it's wait and see now.
