My pig had clicky breathing for months on and off but wss perfectly fine aside from it.

Eventually took her to a new vet, and he heard noises in her little lungs.

We did septrim for 2 weeks (after trialling a diff antibiotic that nearly killed her and caused her so much pain poor thing)

Anyway vet said he didnt hear noises after.

I do still hear clicking but shes again perfectly fine.

Shes 6 in june.

What do you think the problem is? Does she need more septrin?

New vet visit? Annoying to pay again as shes like fine otherwise and last check showed no noises.

Thanks.

Zoes mum.

Poor Zoe, I hope she gets better soon. Someone with more experience than me will be along to advise. 🙏❤️

Hi

At this stage, I would just monitor. If the clicking becomes regular again, then please see your vet for more antibiotics and also have the heart checked again. All the best.
