Should I take my dog to the vet if my dog's neutered incision area is way too swollen or wait a while to see if it heals?

Should I take my dog to the vet if my dog's neutered incision area is way too swollen or wait a while to see if it heals It's been approxiamately a month and a half since my dog got neutered, and his wounds healed up nicely, but just a few days ago, I noticed his incision area is swollen and red. I immediately put his E-collar on and put neosporin on the area. It has now been two days and the swelling has not gone down.

Should I take him to a vet or should I wait a couple more days to see if it heals up by itself (with the help of neosporin)? Asked by tokki 28 months ago Similar questions: dog vet dog's neutered incision area swollen wait heals Pets > Dogs.

Git along little doggie.... This really seems serious - just like we say to people, get to a doctor. This is a long time for something not to be right. And neosporin, unless it is dog-safe, is not the way to go either.

Get the dog seen by a real dog doctor now! .

ASk The Vet Call your vet first thing in the morning. They'll tell you if it's something to worry about.

1 If the surgery was a month ago, he should be close to healed...if I remember correctly. I would at least give the vet a call. Honestly, if it were me, I would take him in.

But please at least call the vet in the morning.

2 I agree, it can never hurt to call the vet.

3 Please call the vet. At least talk to them to ask this question of them. This is plenty of time for the incision to have healed properly.

Dog neutered licks on incision and it has now come open in a small place even though it has been over a week since fixed.

My dog is 5 months old and going through the typical hormone changes. S vet has approved and he is getting neutered...

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
