So, Rosie has had a little abscess (around half cent) on the side of her paw for around 6 weeks (ish).
She has had Baytril, but this has not shifted it. Having said that, it is not bothering her and has not altered.
Went to the vets today (injection for ear mites), and discussed with vet who advised she would usually sedate and lance abscess, but in view of Rosie's age (13), she would be more inclined to keep an eye on it due to dangers of sedation at Rosie's age.
I am more than happy to do that (prefer not to unnecessarily distress Rosie), but is this a good strategy to take?
