| I would suggest a vet visit is in order. It sounds like something I wouldn't want to fool around with. I hope your baby is ok.

| It's impossible to guess what it may be without seeing it, but I would bring your yorkie to the vet to have it looked at. Could be an infection, a bug (fly larvae?), or both.

| Yes, get to the vet. If it is an open hole I am not sure I would put anything on it. To be honest, I would probably take mine to the ER vet.
