Sick after suture removal Had my Roxy spayed 2 wks ago today and she was fine until today. Daughter took her to have sutures removed and they said she was having reaction to them. Gave her a script for pcn. The day she had surgery she was running and jumping like nothing happened but after suture removal she has been laying around and sleeping. Not acting like herself at all and now I'm really getting worried. Anyone else have this issue 2 wks after spay? |
The antibiotic could just be causing her to be tired. |
Poor girl. Has she had a dose of the pcn? Could be the antibiotic is making her sleepy. If she is experiencing any of these things, I would take her to the emergency vet tonight: Swelling or irritation at the incision site Overly hot ears, signs of fever Pale and sticky gums |
If they are giving her an antibiotic I would presume that her incision site is infected- did they just do one dose or did they give you a scrip? (Sorry I guess I didn't focus on my reading) she is probably not feeling so hot if she is battling an infection. Did the incision site close? Did she have a temp at the vet? Did the give topical management directions? |
'Running and Jumping' the day of her surgery? I hope she didn't tear anything! |
