Re: Umbilical Hernia
Got to take my lad back to the vets tomorrow after having his hernia repaired and 10 long days of lead walks it looks like the hernia has returned worse than when he had it first done.
Re: Umbilical Hernia
Definitely take him back but it may just be fluid draining from the site so don't assume the worst just yet.
In life, it is important to know when to stop arguing with people and simply let them be wrong.
Re: Umbilical Hernia
Hope all goes well for him!
Re: Umbilical Hernia
Took him back he's got an infection the hernia is intacted so hopefully a course of antibiotics will sort him out.
Re: Umbilical Hernia
Let's hope the AB's do the job - fingers crossed for you.
