One of my girly trio has a bite mark - will it heal naturally or should i put something on it? I'm obviously cleaning it but i seem to remember someone on here mentioning savlon healing cream

any advice is greatly appriecated !:)
 
Saline solution to clean it and then you can get an oinment or powder (you can get them from P@H) or another type of anticeptic cream to keep out infection. Open wounds are prime areas for bacteria so you need to keep it clean. Nibbles had an open wound a few years ago and he still has a bald patch, bless him.

I hope this helps and things get better for your piggy soon.

Amy, Nibbles and Nutty
