Felicia broker three toes
My very active 14 year old girl - Felicia - broker 3 of her toes on Friday the 13th of May. We rushed her to the vet and she wore the first splint for two weeks (with about 5 days of pain meds). At first she was limping badly with the splint - but by the end of the two weeks she was hardly limping at all - she walking on the splint almost exactly like it was her own foot!
We took her in for a splint change yesterday so they could check out her foot (which looked fine) and they put on a new splint. Now this morning she is limping exactly like she was when she first broke her toes two weeks ago.
Has anyone had experience like this? I spoke to the vet and she said she may just be getting used to the new splint....I don't know....
It makes me wish I would've just waited another week or so before I took her in....they say she needs 2 more splint changes before she gets it off permanently in 6 more weeks, but I may just take her for one more (unless she doesn't stop limping soon).
Any comments or help would be greatly appreciated!!:confused::(
