My lil bunny pepper has recently had a lateral wall resection done on her ear due to an abscess, the abscess had initially appeared as a small lump at the base of her ear, after lancing and cleaning this, i did 3x daily flushings at home, plus she was getting baytril and metacam, she was prev recieving penicillin injections aswell. Im now having a really hard time keeping the new wound clean, with all the pus and what not. After a trip to the vets yday as the wound just looked yukk ! the vet said he thought the wound was breaking down. After sedating pepper to confirm this he cleaned out all the pus and resumed the penicillin injections, unfortunately I can not afford to be referred for a ct scan to confirm wether or not the bulla of the ear is involved. Im fast running out of options for her, and do not want to consider pts as she is still her normal happy self, eating drinking pooing and still been a norty lil bunny and stealing food so I feel that pts would be the wrong descion. I was wondering if anyone knew of any vets that had experience in dealing with these abscesses that may be able to offer something else to try ?
Any help would be very greatly appreciated
