Desexing Post Op Probs

[JulesP]

The poor boy. I've just been using Neocort for an allergy and it must sting a bit as it first goes on as pup has been yelping a bit. Within seconds you can see the relief though.

They didn't use a hot water bottle on the area did they? There was a dog on here a few years back that got a very nasty burn from a hot water bottle after a simple op.

ok ladies *UPDATE TIME* Poor Ted is atleast acting more like his usual happy self, i've been working on desensitizing him to being touch around the site before i retry appling the cream, and last nite i actually managed to get some on thanks for letting me know to keep the buster collar on for 2 weeks the vet didnt give me any time line to go on!!!!! but he is on AB's for 2 weeks. Thanks again for replying, I was so worried about him, I havent had much luck this year with my pack (all totally out of the blue probs happening) and i was worried this was going to end in disaster, so thanks for the support!!!!

I worried about that too when I first saw the thread title. Moose has a nice big bald patch from a severe hwb burn. Certainly sounds more like a rash reaction though.

Glad to hear he's on ABs now and you've managed to get some cream on. Hope he feels better soon.

if he's outside get him in off the dirt like in a laundry. He could be getting extra bacteria in there lying on the grass or soil and annoying it more.
