Sookie unfortunately played chicken with the sofa and the sofa won. She managed to rip the flap of skin that forms their nose (that skin in the middle). This happened approximately 8 days ago and I can proudly say after 5 stitches she is healing beautifully and her nose looks great. My vet told me to watch for scabbing within the first 24 hours and to dissolve the scabs with a q-tip dipped in water. She has major scabbing that looks like either the stitches disolving or scabbing attached to the stitches. Its so thick that in order for me to dissolve it with the qtip I'd need divine intervention to keep her still and lots of time. Its not completely blocking her nasal passages but is taking up a good 50% of each one. What should i do? is this normal? should i rush her back to the vet? she shows no signs of discomfort and is not even pawing at her nose, acting normally, is eating and drinking fine. Any and all advice/ experience would be greatly appreciated. <3
