JohnF Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Peggy has always had a bald spot on her neck Spots, but now after surgery in January another one here has appeared over the site of an antibiotic injection. The vet says the scab will come off soon and to use Hibiscrub twice a day and keep an eye on it. Has anyone on here had a problem like this wit one of their Grey's before? It makes me wonder if the first one happened the same way too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbhounds Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 No that shouldn't happen- what antibotic was used? I did look at the photo-- is that scab still there? Is there a cyst under the scab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnF Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 I'm pretty sure it was just a normal Noroclav injection used post op as the vet said it was the same as the follow-up antibiotic tablets. She had tail surgery in 2010 without any injection site issues. As to the possibility of cyst there's not one obvious there but we are keeping a close eye on things and may need to have it removed surgically. I wonder might a previous vet (before we had her) have injected her neck lower down for similar reasons? The original one is not a hotspot nor a mite site, just a bare patch of skin. With rescues it is so unhelpful not to have the history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
