Clarence is healing from his PECA-BO surgery and has a big, long incision from the opening of his ear down the side of his face to right above his chin.
He is 5 days post surgery and last night we noticed the incision has a spot that is soft and red and irritated, right where his lop ear bends to meet his face. I emailed a pic to the vet afraid it may be getting infected and she said its not. And we would like to keep it that way.
We think its a result of him scratching.
Anyone have any ideas on how to keep him from scratching his ear with his hind leg?
Thank you,
