rugerfly Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Ruger has rubbed the skin off his pads whilst wearing his splint, is there something that is good for this? Also any ideas for what to put onto a fresh surgical wound to prevent infection? They are burried stitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggy_puggy Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 For the pads people have suggested paw paw ointment. I suppose you could put the paw paw on liberally and get a small freezer bag and place over the top and put a bandage over the top to keep it on for a few hours. Otherwise he would probably just rub the ointment off whne he walked. I would be inclined not to put anything on a surgical wound. Just make sure it is dry and clean.

rugerfly Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks Puggy! the rubbed area is on his thumb and top of the big pad. He's not walking on the foot much so I guess i could do it when he is asleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
