spaz
Hello everyone, it's been a while since i've last been on. Last Thursday, Spaz got his leg caught in the cage somehow. Luckily my husband was there when it happened. When my husband tried to free his foot, Spaz freaked out and spun all around. When my husband finally got him loose, Spaz couldn't use his foot. I took him to the vet later that day, this was a vet that I had never used before. The vet told me that he just tore some of the tissue inside his leg, so he just bandaged up his leg. A few days later, I removed the bandages. His leg wat twice the size as before. I called the vet that I had taken him to and they were talking like they really didn't know what was going on. So I didn't not want to waste anymore of my time and money with a vet who would probably make things worse. After looking for a better vet, I finally found one. The vet said that he has almost no feeling in his toes (she is hoping that is caused by the swelling effecting the nerves), he has an open wound on his leg (which is most likely caused by the bandages the other vet put on him :tickedoff
, skin and eyes are very dry (he's eating, but not drinking very much). She gave me chlorhexidine solution to soak his foot in for the wound, metacam for the pain and inflamation, baytril for the infection, and artificial tears for his dry eyes. He is eating all his veggies, and pellet food. I am putting water on all his lettus and trying to give him water anytime he'll drink.
My question is, am I doing everything right, and is baytril safe to use. He is 2 pounds and 10 ounces and I am giving him .5 ml. twice a day.
