Human antibiotic cream

[brydyslass]

Jake had to go to the vet last night as his manhood was stuck. Vets knocked him out to put it back in. I had tried for 24 hrs on and off with some lub. The wee soul had bit himself so much everything was pussed up. They knocked him out, put him right and roughly cleaned him up. No abs.

Have just spent half an hour soaking his tube as it was all pussed up and hairy. Got most of it cleaned with salty water. I have some antibiotic cream would it be safe to put it on his sore bits as they are still a little "inappropriate word". The joys.

d**n autocorrect. His sore bits are still a little "inappropriate word".

I am no vet, so my guidance is purely from experience with one of my degus who had a prolapsed penis and our vets recommended canaural ear drops for dogs. They said it had a mild anti inflammatory and contained some antibiotic and lubrication.

I would also recommend KY as a lubricant. I personally would not be afraid to use an over the counter human antibiotic oinment, rather than creme. Ointment tends to have better delivery of the meds contained there in, as well as protecting the injury better.

Indeed, the joys...just wanted to say - POOR JAKE and poor Brydyslass.

(I've never had to deal with stuck w*llies - my bloke dealt with it when Mr P had it...)
