[QUOTE="Kelly, post: 278440, member: 314"] Is it an open wound still infected? Did you try a different antibiotic? It could need a drug that it isn't resistant to. That is an awful long time for it to still be infected. Have you tried Icthamol a drawing salve or medicines they use to pull out infection and wrap it to keep the swelling down? This would probably require frequent bandage changes and disinfecting it. I would ask a different vet. Have you kept the flies out because they can lay eggs in any open wounds. Catron works well to spray on wounds to keep the flies from crawling in but has to be applied often. [/QUOTE]
