Black & White

Late Friday, I noticed that Gi's open wound had turned black ... black mucus. It's not a good sign. So off to the vet.

As expected, the open wound had gone worse ... gone inwards. The first solution was to surgically remove the infected skin and let it heal on its own. But given Gi's age and the lack of skin around the wound, the vet decided to try medication. The wound might not close up due to the old wound but I am ok with it as long it's not infected. So Gi was prescribed antibiotics, saline solution and cream.

Today is the 5th day and I am relieved to see that the black mucus is gone. Gonna continue the treatment until the next check-up on 6 Aug.

Yeah yeah ... I shud have brought her to the vet in the first place ... blah blah blah ... *roll eyes with a cheeky grin*
