My rat is almost 3 years old and has been paralyzed this year from the waist down. She had one lipoma removed before about 7 months ago. Shortly after she ended up with a weird thing growing on her groin and had it removed and stitched up as well. The wound opened up 7 days after surgery but it ended up healing. She then slowly lost use of her back legs due to degenerative hind leg syndrome. She’s been managing fine though and she has the greatest attitude. Recently though I noticed a bad smell and when I looked I saw a strange wound in her groin. I’ve been doing some things to manage it but I’m wondering if anyone has seeen something like this before? She’s doing okay otherwise. I started her on antibiotics orally and I put her in her own cage so I can clean it every day and clean the wound and ive been applying fucidin and polysporin and also I got some intrasite gel. Has anyone seen this before?
