My piggy has a swollen toeoff to vet tomorrow I'm Assuming? Has anyone had this? Anything I can do tonight to help...amazingly he doesn’t seem to bothered
Hi! It looks like he may have caught his nail somewhere but not completely ripped it off, but it doesn't look serious. As your piggy is not bothered, you needn't either. Just don't be surprised if the nail is suddenly growing out funny in due time!

Ah phew! I could touch it and hold it and he didn’t complain! So no vet trip then?Hi!

You can still have it checked, but I would not panic over a serious infection or injury.
