You can give him a 1/2 a baby aspirin, also try to find a little ice pack or put some ice in a little quart zipper bag and put ice on his knee, put something in between his skin and the ice, and just hold ice on it for 15 minutes like 4 times a day for 2 days and then use a warm pack the same way. Try to keep him off of it if you can. You also might pick up a non-stick bandage and a small ACE wrap and gently wrap his knee to keep the bandage on top of the medicine so 1) he can't lick off the medicine 2) the ACE won't stick to the wound and 3) to keep it as clean as possible.
Good luck! |
