 Max fell down the stairs!
Max fell down the stairs 2 weeks ago.. today he starts limping on the same leg he hurt in the fall. The ER dr said it's a sprain (pulled muscle) and gave him 2 pain killers. He's been whimpering and shaking so the pain must be bad. He was fine when we got up so must have pulled it playing?
Question is the dr said 2 weeks strict bedrest?? If he can't be kenneled for 2 weeks to block him in a small area would be ok as long as I restrict his movements. Anyone else have this strict dr orders for a pulled muscle? I'm sure while he is in pain he will lay around (snuggled up in his minky blanket) but how do you keep them down for 2 weeks? Then a few days after that we leave for Hawaii for 2 weeks. Now not sure what to do with him for those 2 weeks. Doggy daycare will be a lot of running around for 2 weeks. |
