Any help would be appreciated!!
I have a 6month old horse field tortoise. He is very active and loves to climb! However, 3weeks ago I noticed his front leg at one side to be slightly swollen. I immediately took him to the vets, after finding a specialist who knew about reptiles. He has since had antibiotics (2different types) ,cream and I was recommended to bathe him everyday and apply this cream. However, after 2 weeks the swelling looked to be getting worse. So took him back to the vets again. Now he's on another antibiotic and this is every other day. He just doesn't seem to be improving and the bathing seems to be it help the healing process. Can anyone help????
