Eriathwens piggies

Thankyou, its certainly a worry, as much as shes "fine" in herself, she also cant just live her life with a hole in her abdomen. I've decided to deviate slightly from the original plan, my vet said to be very sparing with the flamazine on the wound as its currently out of stock everywhere due to supply issues..so, I've ordered a tube of medical grade manuka honey to pack the wound with after its been flushed. That way I will only need a tiny amount of the flamazine on the surface. This type of wound seems to be exactly what the manuka honey is advised for so fingers crossed it helps, I suppose the worst it can do is nothing.

Fingers firmly crossed for a good outcome. I'm sure we've used manuka honey along with some other cream from the vets for a wound that wasn't healing well before in the rescue centre. I think it worked. It's amazing stuff.

Yeah I remember buying some as a child when my parents wouldn't take one of my boars to the vet, he got attacked by a couple of other piggies and had some nasty wounds, it worked well. I bought the same stuff a friend of mine in Scotland was given by her vet so fingers crossed it does something!
