Hi, I have noticed yesterday morning that my boy Splinter has some swelling on his foot. I’ve panicked, researched as much as I could and came up with these 3 for my possibilities : bumblefoot, broken or sprained foot. There seems to be no cut or wound. I have given him Meloxicam, yesterday and today but the swelling just keeps getting worse…
In the picture with his brother it is big, but right now it is very concerning and Splinter seems to be biting on it/licking it. I have been spraying it with an antibacterial spray, to hopefully avoid any infection…
I must also add that both of his hind legs have some dryness on the sole of their feet.
He hasn’t been showing any signs of stress, he is just more sleepy than usual. He doesn’t have much to do since he can’t climb his cage.
