Peppersdad Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Hi gters I took pepper to the vet this evening with his sore front foot. he has a lump inbetween his toes ,and a sore on one of the pads, which on closer inspection looked inflamed, so i decided to take pepper to the vet , which made pep very anxious and me apprehensive on how pep would behave as he does not like anybody touching his sore foot especially a vet! but he was very good he let the vet pullhis toes apart for a closer look,and the vet says pep has an inter digital cyst,which fortunately the the vet says is weeping , which means there is a foreign body in there, and the pad is also infected. he is now on a course of antibiotics , and warm saltwater poltices,wich hopefully willdo the trick.
