Possible bumblefoot?

[ElGoose]

I’ve been keeping an eye on my goslings poorly foot and looking at the swelling I’m worried it might be bumblefoot I had a chance to properly compare her back toes today and if it is what are the next steps? how do we treat this? Or is it just a bit of swelling that’ll go down on its own? It’s only on her back toe

How old is he/she? I would start by soaking that foot in warm water with epsom salts, then inspect it closely and see if theres anything like a splinter or a cut , or if a blackish scab (that could be bumblefoot) I never saw bumblefoot on a toe so I dont know if it may be possible? can spray with vetericin and use antibiotic ointment on it (the kind withOUT pain relief) I use a supersilver wound gel seems to work better than triple antibiotic on animals and on people too

I also read a recent post about "epsom salt ointment" its a green paste they sell it for horses but can be used on other animals I read that it is an awesome cure for bumblefoot

When we last inspected there was a small cut on the toe and we cleaned it down and hoped for the best but it’s still very swollen I’ll soak it later in some salt water and see if I can find any antibiotic ointment or vetericin
