Abscess one week post-op

Wonderful to see it healing so well.
It does feel satisfying when all the hard work produces results.
Hope it won’t be too much longer before Anna is completely mended
 
How long should I wait until I put her back with the other piggies? Olaf has been rumble strutting through the bars at her, he misses his wifey!
 
Don't know the answer to your question, but just wanted to add my congratulations on how well you have been dealing with the abscess and wishes that it will be fully healed soon
 
To be honest I don't even think I separated Fred if I did it was probably just for the first few days. Even after operations I don't tend to keep them separate to long P was my longest and that was just due to the nature of the surgery it was about 7 days. I personally think she'd be fine to go back with the other as long as they don't lick the wound. 🤢

Full cage cleaning day is Sunday, so I guess I will open up the wall then and let her be with her buddies! I’ll have to take a video of Olaf and Anna reuniting, it might be really cute.
 
I'm taking my girl to the vets tomorrow with a suspected abscess. if it turns out to be that I'll be following your approach and hopefully we'll get throigh it too

It’s a lot of work, Anna’s is starting to close up now and it’s just producing some liquid stuff, not the thick puss. If this thing comes back after all I have done for her I’ll be so mad. I am still flushing it and she is still on antibiotics. I guess I will flush until there is nothing to flush anymore to be on the safe side. It will be two weeks of flushing tomorrow and 3 weeks since her surgery.
 
Sounds like you've done a really good job of looking after her. I hope it goes ok at the vets for you.
