George's IDC popped...

is it going to be ok? He's had an IDC on and off for a little while now. It comes and then goes away for a few months and then pops up again the same spot. This last time it got really big and I came home the other day and there was blood all over his paw. Apparently it popped. It's looking smaller and not as inflamed now (and of course I cleaned it) but do you think it will be ok? Any suggestions?

My girl Butter gets these every so often...

When she does and it gets big and irritated... I always pop it open myself and put peroxide on it... The next morning I do the same and by that night it is completely gone!

Do you know...

Helen's treatment? I've heard about it so many times and when I try to search it, all I come up with is people talking about it...not the actual method!

I put him on some antibiotics just as a precaution for a few days, too.

I believe it's

One cup bleach to two gallons of warm water. Make sure the feet are dry before you allow him on the carpets! happy.gif

I would

Just wash it with an antibacterial soap (like Dial) twice a day and watch it.
If it comes back, you may want to try Helen's treatment of standing him in a bleach solution. I wouldn't do it now, though. Also, next time you're at your vet, ask for some animax ointment to keep on hand. happy.gif
