Hi! My Dog showd up with this wound. I dont know if ir was a parasite cause i didnt ser any. Should i go to the vet for treatment or does this look like it Will heal on his own? Thank you for your help!
Gently clean the area with a mild antibacterial soap or diluted Betadine solution. Dry thoroughly. You can apply a dab of triple antibiotic ointment daily. Place an e-collar (cone) on Zoya to prevent licking or chewing. If the spot doesn't begin to heal in a few days, have her examined by your veterinarian. Monitor for lethargy, discharge, swelling, odor or redness.

Hi, my boy Malamute had a small lump removed from the side of his paw, benign thank goodness! It was 2 weeks ago and stitches have dissolved,but it is still weeping, I got more antibiotics from the vet and I change the dressing twice a day but don't
I'm not sure if you tried to attach a picture or not, but I do not see a picture. Be sure that the dressing stays clean and dry on the outside. If Zander gets it wet on the outside, it can allow bacteria to come through the bandage to the wound. If you are changing the dressing twice daily, then I would not anticipate any reason that it would need cleaning. In general, it is better to change a bandage more often. However, if it appears sore, then I would recommend having your veterinarian examine it to make sure there aren't any changes that need to be made to your bandaging process. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

took bruno out for a walk and a fish bone got stuck in his leg deep inside , i took him to vet he removed it .he is able to walk , jump properly and there is no swellen but that site is red and when i apply medicine it pains , should i put bandage on
If he is licking at it, use an Elizabethan collar (cone) or apply a light bandage. use caution when applying bandages though. if you make it too tight, you may cause more harm than good. Restrict Bruno's activity to just short leash walks for elimination. Avoid excessive running, jumping or rough play until he is feeling better.

Pet had skin die off, back rt foot (after severe abscess in back rt hip threatened amputate) Vet removed dead, new skin growth underneath. This left atleast 50% of exposed flesh, the other has new skin growth. Antibiocs & cleaning w/chlorhexidine 2xs
Ouch! In some cases where wounds are on areas that can't be closed by suturing or are constantly being agitated, keeping the wound covered to prevent increasing infection/debris from entering the wound may be needed. I've seen success with using manuka honey for treating large infected wounds and increasing healing, (usually with bandage changes every 12-24 hours) as well as using hydrocolloid bandages that protect the area by acting as a sort of skin barrier, allowing the wound to breathe but continue to heal/allow for new tissue growth underneath without allowing debris into it. There is also progress being made with using fish-skin bandages to create another fake skin barrier and allow healing underneath. If you're not currently, I'd recommend speaking with a veterinary dermatologist who can better instruct you in these procedures and monitor progress over time.

My akita unfortunately has gashed her front paw on a piece of metal, I have been putting iodine, peroxide and trying to keep a bandage on it, but I am getting worried. What do u recommend im really getting worried
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Poor Bella! Ideally you should have your Vet evaluate the wound to see if she needs surgery. At a minimum antibiotics. For at home you can use an E-collar to prevent licking and chewing of the bandage. A plastic bag should be put over the bandage when she is outside. I would try to find medical grade honey. Clean the wound with mild soap and water, dry well, apply honey and bandage. Change the bandage every 2-3 days. Repeat cleaning and honey with each bandage change. I hope this helps and I wish Bella a speedy recovery.
