I am still all freaked out about DJ's leg injury. Vet won't be able to get out until next week and since it's on a tough spot on the leg (as well as simply too late) they wouldn't be able to suture it anyway.
Also no heat or swelling so they don't consider it an emergency.
I have a general farm call next week and they will check on the leg then.
I've been putting ointment on every day and bandaging it because out terrible sand just sticks to everything.
So with the ointment from the feedstore the wound has changed significantly in just 2 days.
It seems to be less blubber and open and getting more pink tissue and growing in.
BUT: I've never seen proud flesh. How do I know if the new tissue is good tissue or bad tissue?
Would it be normal for a leg wound to have a bit of a ridge around the edge?
