What is your human medicine and local pharmacy or Walmart would carry Benadryl for children.

Hello
She is the only one showing this simptoms
Non smoker
During the day she is outside on the grass eating grounded corn and grass. Until 5 days ago she was eating some starter food for chicken.
During the night she sleeps inside the house in a box with big sawdust flakes
No mold
No toxins
She has access to deep water to dunk her head in water just before sleep when i give them water in a glass
Besides the eyes and the legShe is swollen around the beak and i feel the veins on her neck. Breathing is normal. The eyes look a little more shiny than usual

At her age, she should have access to deep water 24/7, are both eye's swollen? A combination of lack of deep water and foreign matter in her eyes like corn dust may cause Conjunctivitis, which can cause swelling in the conjunctiva and or discharge from the eye.

I'm not really sure though, I think an avian vet would be the best possible route for your goose, they will be able to physically exam her and perform diagnostic tests to help make a more confident diagnosis then we are able to make simply by talking over the internet.

My best guess is she has some sort of infection that is causing swelling throughout her body.

Apparently she have goute and some kind of salmonella. After 5 hours with drugs she already looks better @Miss Lydia @Isaac 0

I think the antibiotics are making them poop some white thing. Is it normal?

 

[Goosebaby]

Gout is a symptom of kidney problems, more than likely the salmonella infection is to blame. The antibiotics will get rid of any infection but helping the kidneys heal is critically important.
Adding watery foods like melon, cucumbers, apples, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries to her diet will help improve kidney function and help her to heal.

I was wondering what the OP is feeding too, because high calcium at a young age can cause kidney problems which may lead to gout.

I think an avian vet is your best bet. Is that an option?

I can see one on monday. He got like this over 2 days and i was hoping for some luck here.

 

[Miss Lydia]

The leg too? Looking at the swelling around the eyes made me think allergic reaction but I don’t think it would affect just one leg did you check all over for a bite of somekind and is it eating, drinking and pooping normal?
