Help Needed! Swollen & painful chin - Sally

Re: Swollen & painful chin - Sally

Back from the vet and that's the first thing he thought too. Because she has some very red gums in that area, he gave her a prescription of Clavamox for 7 days for gum/tissue infection. He's having me follow up that with Benadyrl twice a day just in case it was a bee sting. I've seen my share of yellow jackets/hornets recently so I'm guessing the way it came on so fast that it's a sting. He ruled out any fracture/break thank goodness.

Thanks everyone. I feel much better now.

[MENTION=2014]JeannieCO[/MENTION] Happy to hear that it seems to be nothing more serious. Next month the buggers will be worse because once they have their nests all full-they turn nasty. I have one dog who is extremely allergic-and she will chase them-very nerve wracking!!! yikes! I have to keep pred. on hand-last time it took prednisone and benedryl .

Poor baby girl, I hope she heals up fast. I think the best treatment (besides her meds) Are treats, yes lots and lots of good ones and she'll get better in a flash!

Thank goodness that wasn't it, but that was a very good thought too. We have our occasional snake from time to time in the yard, mostly garders.

Well i'm glad you ruled it out.
