Emmett has to have Surgery

That was nice of him to do! I am so, so sorry he has this infection. I do hope it clears up soon.

Just seeing this now... wow! I wonder if his scrotum infection is related in some way to the lump (infection) that was removed? Maybe something is going on within his skin?

I don't believe so, I think it originally got infected because he licked the neuter site, and I guess the first round of antibiotics didn't clear it up all the way.

I am happy to report that after just a few days of wearing the cone and being on antibiotics that his scrotum is looking a lot better. It isn't "wet" looking and the red is going away. I really hope these next few rounds of antibiotics kill the infection this time!

Thank you everyone for your concern.

So glad he is doing better! I hope he continues to improve!

After two rouunds of antibiotics and being coned Emmett has finally healed! His scrotum is not filled with fluid anymore and it has shriveled up. You can't even notice the scar tissue any more. Thank you all so much for your help and kindness! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
