Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Female | unspayed | 3 years and 9 months old | 70 lbs
My GSD ran onto a stick in the park 2 days ago. We saw a laceration in the back of her throat, but she was acting normal. By morning she was not doing well, lethargic and could hardly walk. Vet found a pocket under her front left leg. Sent us home with antibiotics, anti inflammatory & painkillers & the pocket was gone by this morning. She was acting fine, eating drinking and going to the bathroom but now just starting light bleeding from her nose. Should I be worried or can it wait till morning
