[QUOTE="QueenSidhe, post: 702812, member: 13366"] There are several things that I would suggest. 1. Find someone who has some FRESH comfrey growing, if you can. If you CAN find it, you will want to rubs the large leaves between your hands to "bruise" the leaves. You will then use these as a compress against the wound. It will help pull out any toxins within the wound, and help speed up the healing process. 2. Purchase some "Schriener's" (100% natural, no chemicals) spray from your local feed store. Spray this on the wound liberally, then you will place the "bruise" comfrey leaves on top of this, and wrap with "vet wrap" or something similar. 3. I would also recommend warm compresses. You can use old CLEAN rags and place these (after soaking them, put them in the microwave for a couple of minutes to warm them up sufficiently) and place over the comfrey leaves. 4. Purchase some electrolites from your local feed store, such as "Bounce Back" and add to the drinking water. 5. Purchase some water soluable antibiotics, such as oxy-tetracycline, or regular tetracycline and also add to the drinking water. 6. You can also spray the Schriener's spray on the areas where she has lost fur. This will help speed up hair regrowth, and if any fungus, bacteria or whatever is also present this will kill it. 7. If she quits eatting or drinking, you can buy a force-feed tube that is a large bottle with a long plastic tube attached. You fill it with the antibiotics and eletrolites to this, place the tube down the left side of the throat (so it will end up on the right side of the stomach where it will do the most good), and you don't have to worry about it accidentally ending up in the lungs. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
