For those of you who remember, Orla had a dislocated fore leg which was slowly getting better but now she is limping a little again and upon examination I found a new wound above her leg. She had a wound there before which looked very much like she has been biting herself out of pain or frustration. This new wound looks different and there is some green/yellow discolouration and looks to be very deep though it is not weeping or bleeding. She did have an x ray which showed nothing suspicious but maybe a scan would be more prudent.
As usual Orla seems fine otherwise and is eating and playing. Now I am wondering is she biting herself or is it something more serious like a tumour or abscess. Is amputation the way forward or am I on the wrong track.
If anyone can help identify the wound I'd be very grateful. She is due a check up on Wednesday but I'm wondering if I should bring that forward now :?
