My dog's nail bled after trimming. Can I use polysporin to clean it?

This looks like a fairly small, superficial abrasion so I think it would probably okay to continue to monitor it. If MK is licking the area I wouldn't recommend using Polysporin. If the wound seems to be getting larger or you notice an increase in redness, swelling or discharge you should have your vet examine it.

Soak it in soap and warm water to keep it clean. Once it is dry you can place medicated powder in between the toes to help minimize moisture to dry it out. You can place neosporin around the nail bed also. If this does not help then you will need to see a vet

Hi, provided the quick does not get infected, the nail will gradually grow back. I think just cleaning it and making sure it does not get infected will be enough. If you should notice any oozing or swelling/inflammation of the area, it could mean that the nail bed is getting infected and it is best to have Jaxon checked over. Also try to prevent Jaxon licking the wound. Hope this helps !

In general, a nail that is only cut a little and not too bad should not be a high risk of infection. Make sure to keep the nail clean and dry. Make sure that Poodle is not licking at the nail. Monitor it closely for any signs of a problem and have Poodle examined if needed. I hope this helps.

You can use the hydrogen peroxide to clean off the blood but you should not use it several times because it can actually slow down the healing process. It's better to gently wash the paw with hand soap. Rinse it well and then pat it dry. Napoleon should also be wearing and elizabethan collar at all times to prevent licking as well as have strict exercise restriction to prevent further trauma.

You can use both. A thin layer of iodine ointment will serve to help prevent infection. The Woun’ dres can be applied over it. If Caesar is likely to lick it, I recommend an e-collar. He may chew and eat a bandage if he isn’t wearing an e-collar. Bandages are also tricky because they can trap moisture and can tighten, cutting off circulation to the paw. I would continue applying both three times a day until the nail bed appears completely dry and scabbed over. You can place a toddler sock or a bootie over the paw when you take Caesar outside to pee and poop but I would avoid long walks for the next week. Good luck!

Gently clean the area with warm water and antiseptic soap. Monitor it for signs of infection such as pus, swelling, warmth to the touch, and redness. Also monitor Scooby for limping, which means he is in pain. If you see any of those signs, have him seen by a vet.
