Incision red and swollen after spay?

[MyStellaBully]

This is Stella's spay incision. It has gotten red and swollen the past few days. Not hot, and no drainage. She was spayed on 1/9. Is that part of the normal healing process to swell like that?

A week after June's spay, her incision was red and swollen too. Took her to the vet and they said it was just a small infection and they gave her Clavamox 2 times a day for a week. It was considerably better after a day or 2.

Usually the stitches come out at about 2 weeks-or did they glue her 'cause I can't see stitches? It looks kinda' "bumpy" to me, and the darker red looks a little worrisome. I would have them take a look-or if your vet has email-email them a picture, and see what he says. Much better to be safe...

Agreed, looks very bumpy and swollen, I'd go for a recheck.

Agnes's incision didn't get red or swollen after her spay. I would have your vet check her out based on your pic! Hope all is well with your little girl!
