o.k
bloodwork good, wbc's normal, no fever.
Just this stubborn sore that is taking it's time healing.
It has filled in, not as red and is not as deep. But still pus.
About 1 inch big and 1/8th inch deep. Has been 10 days now. Started as a bruise, turned into a lump and then a scab and then scab came off leaving a 1/4 inch deep pus fulled red crater orginally.
Will talk to vet again in a.m.
Silvadene is being used and clavamox.
Sure wish it would heal up completely
worries me
thanks,
suzi
