I think the fluid biopsy of the lymph node is a good idea, maybe to rule out the possibility of cancer, and to try to understand what's going on.
If it was a sprain, she would probably be limping or favouring that foot, and probably wouldn't want it to be touched. Again, if it was an infection (maybe caused by a puncture wound etc) then that would be painful, and you would probably see some signs of pain, or she wouldn't want it to be touched.
t know if I am being completely irrational or not. I had lots of mosquito bites on my foot which I scratched allot which may count as tiny open wounds. While I was at the orphanage one of the kids dropped a puppy on my foot, I am now scared that saliva that may have been on the dogs fur may have entered my system through the scratched mosquito bites on my foot.
Have you tried palpitating his leg and flexing it slowly? Just like when you twist your ankle and need to stretch it out. There are 4 joints: hip, knee, hock, and ankle. Check each of them.
it might not be this of course)
Get a really good magnifying glass, and examine her foot, pads, and in between the pads very thoroughly and carefully. Do it in a very good light and make sure she stays still while you do this. Also feel very carefully with your fingertips, around each pad, and between the pads.
She may possibly have a tiny thorn embedded. Sometimes, if the thorn has broken off all you will see is a small dark mark, sometimes very tiny, that doesn't wash away.
I lost my dog Jeffie almost a year ago after a routine cataract eye surgery. My Dog Jeffy was like my son I miss him and I have another dog that is still alive my little girl Buddy. My dog Jeffy died about an hour after surgery while he was recovering in I.C.U. It is a horrible tragic loss. I know the pain is tough and it really can be a nightmare. I want you to know that you are not alone and there are animal lovers out there like myself wanting to be your support group.
What kind of dog is your puppy and what size? Do the other's wrestle with him? Are they much larger? Have you seen him get hurt by the other dogs before?
Anything else? Is he limping? Has he pooped today? How bout yesterday? What did it look like? More info. would be helpful.....
No, I don't think his tail is broke.........
Actually, as a side thought, a friend and I were just talking today about a neighbor I had that asked if I would look at her dog as she had a sore foot or leg. I looked the dog over to find a dew claw nail had grown long enough to grow back into the pad. She didn't even know those nails were there.
I assume, by now, you know if your dog dies or not have dew claws, ESP since it is a long hair breed. Wouldn't hurt to check.
Hi, a slight limp is usually no big deal for a cat. It might indicate a strained tendon. If it were a broken bone, she would not walk on the leg at all. When you are looking at her foot, also look at her leg for any possible bites, and also feel her shoulder. So far, it doesn't sound bad. But if you happen to find a bite, get her in to see the vet as soon as possible.
3 days ago I was in the yard playing with my three dogs and I ran in the house to get phone and the one dog left my yard and got hit by car and died. My heart along with my other dogs is completely crushed. I feel so bad. I took my best friend along with theirs away. I'm playing with the other two dogs every chance I get,feeding them more snacks then ever just trying to make them feel better. But on the other hand while I'm doing that at some point I just completely loose it.
Good day folks and Happy Holidays, when Lisa was on the bed yesterday, I went to pick her up and she made a dog scream. I didn't know what was specifically wrong because it was routine. I noticed a few hours ago she was licking her paw and she only does that when something is wrong... Lisa is also 4 years old and a Yorkie-Terrier of 12 pounds.
I picked her up and noticed her nail (please see attachments) was broken and about to come off.
my lil dog he chews the tops of his feet it makes his breath smell horriable and his feet smell very bad i have been using a fungus shampoo on him and its not working they gave him doxicyclean
m surprised a foot doctor wants to biopsy for a fibula fracture, which is located above the foot. Does he specialize in ankles as well, if that's what part of the fibula he found the the break in? What diagnostic tests did he order that he is able to charactarize as cyst-like calcifications? Did he explain why he felt biopsy was warranted? If you are not comfortable with this surgery, I recommend you cancel until you can get a second opinion from perhaps an orthopedic surgeon.
I've had my left ankle broken on sept 29, it was a fibula frature with a tibia dislocation, was on splint for a week, had surgery on oct 7th,plate + screws + a very long screw to place my tibia on the right place, splint for another week, then my orthopedist put me on aircast Air Stirrup Universe since then. He told me to start physical therapy a week after surgery, but I waited until 2 weeks. Now my foot hurts on an area that has nothing to do with the fracture.
Can you determine that the leg isn't broken? Will he let you move the leg at the hip joint? If he isn't acting like he is in severe pain, will eat and drink. I would try keeping him quiet and only take him out to potty. You know your dog best so you would have to make a judgement call as to if he needs the Vet.
I fell off of a platform, which is about 6 feet high. Landed on my left foot and right heel. It hurt immediately and has hurt since (it's now the third day after the injury). It's getting slightly better every day - meaning that I am able to put more and more weight on it. There is slight bruising on the outside / right side of my right foot. No bruising on the back of the heel, the bottom, or the left. There was very little bruising around the ankle, but there is none now.
