Sounds like a staph aureus bacterial infection, possibly methicillin resistant staph aureus, which will need vancomycin antibiotic, not the one he's on, so I would definitely take him back to vet as soon as possible.

Septic infections move fast, minutes can count if they're not on the correct antibiotic.
multisystem organ failure can set in with fatal results.

I’ve learned with first time post, to reply with a quote or their names as some might not know how to navigate. And then you have the ones that has no issues. Took me forever for photos. This case we are 6-8hrs difference...just a thought....

[MENTION=18098]Homeboyreg[/MENTION]...great advice above!! Keep us posted!!!
