Polyfax Good for Pain Relief?

[arbaz456]

My Chick just injured, and was bleeding. Bleeding is cleared and no more. But, she is crying in pain since long time and can't move, eat and drink anything. Is POLYFAX ointment good for her? To make her better?

That will not give pain relief, but is useful as an antibiotic ointment. You really don't want to use creams with pain relief since most contain benzocaine or other -caines which can be toxic to chickens. A low dose baby aspiring (62 mg) would be a proper pain medicine for a chicken in pain--give twice daily. Polyfax sounds close to Neosporin or Polysproin ointment used in the US.

What would you suggest? Should I use Polyfax for now as I've got that at home at the moment?

Yes, it would be good to use, and give aspirin for pain.

Don't have aspirin at the home. Any luck with Brufen (Ibuprofen)?

I have always heard to not use ibuprofen, acetominophen, or naloxine on poultry.
