I'm looking for some advice on cleaning my male chin's abscess. It formed on the right side of his scrotum about a week after he was neutered. I brought him in last night and they drained it and stitched him up. I ended up having to bring him in again tonight because I was worried at how much swelling was occurring. He ended up chewing out some of his stitches... OY! So they drained the abscess again and cleaned it up. He's been active, eating and pooping since the abscess was formed and continues to stay that way. It doesn't look like he's in any pain at all. He's currently on metacam, baytril and SMZ-TMP. How many times a day should I be cleaning the abscess and should I be using saline or hydrogen peroxide?
