 Similar Situation
Spike had his neuter surgery two weeks ago (June 5th), and this past Tuesday he went to the groomers (June 19th). We had no problems post-surgery, I checked his incision site twice daily and everything looked fine.
Yesterday, I noticed a red area near his incision site. It seems to be weeping a clear fluid, and seems quite hard to the touch (although this might be normal, I can't say I know for sure). I put some antibiotic ointment on it, and it seemed better this morning, although still there! I put some more on before I left for work. We were at the off-leash park on Thursday, and there have been lots of mosquitos lately! I'm wondering if this happened at the groomers, if this is a bug bite, or if something else is going on.
He seems fine otherwise - peeing, poop, eating and drinking, acting as normal. Any thoughts - the vets are closed today!?! |
