I am very sorry to post yet another "sore hock" thread but I really have tried everything for Fiver!
He has been on a course of antibiotics and metacam but it did nothing for him. I have tried sudocreme but it hasn't touched them and I stopped it because he was getting so stressed. I have completely redone their room so that they have nothing to vet bed and foam mats to sit/stand on. I have not bound his feet because they aren't bad enough to need bandages but at the same time I am worried that this is what I will have to do in order to get them to heal. He would not tolerate this and most likely get very stressed out about it so I'm reluctant to try.
I was told that tea tree cream is very good for them. I asked somebody to get me some but they got the oil instead. I presume I wouldn't be able to use this as some kind of bath for his feet? I am really at the end of my tether, he has suffered from these for nearly a year and I feel so bad that I can do nothing to help!
Can anybody suggest something I haven't done?
