This fella came to me with a huge abcess, Unfortunately his owner didnt comply with our advice and keep him clean and away from bird excrement and died a week later with septicemia..
How did the abscess end up looking so chewed open looking? Did the vet not make a clean cut and clear it out and send topical along with antibiotic injections?????
The pic was taken before we did anything, we sedated him then cleaned out the stuff inside of which most was solid.
Topical cream cannot be used in abcesses, it seals in any bacteria that is left.
We did give antibiotics every 48 hours and to be cleaned 3 times a day with saline solution,
