Just wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions on treating a large (1/2 dollar size) hernia. We plan to get it repaired surgically, but the vet is pushing to do it even before she reaches 4 months old. I really would like to get to 6 months just due to everything I've read about maturing.
Tonight we tried using secure flex wrap, to hold a cotton round and a piece of cardboard the same size. But the beloved wrinkles came back to bite...and the skin moved back and forth and it popped off within 10 minutes.
I just wondered if anyone had a better idea since obviously we don't want to make it tight enough to cause damage. I'm thinking making the cardboard round and bandage larger.
Other than the Hernia, Bella is doing wonderful and I'll try to post some photos as we have now had her exactly a month on the 30th.
