We are pleased to announce that we have a NEW Ask a Veterinarian Forum where you can post your pet-health questions and receive answers from Aleda Cheng, D.V.M.
Dr. Cheng is graciously volunteering her time and expertise to answer your questions at:
Our 5 month old was spayed yesterday morning. She is still acting pretty drugged up, or perhaps she's in a lot of pain or just uncomfortable. What can I do to help her? Warm, wet cloth on her sutures? Rimadyl? Thank you!
Beccapoe - She just had a hysterectomyHysterectomy Hysterectomy - series! She needs time to rest and heal. If rimadyl was prescribed, then use it. Don't let her go tearing around the house or outside for a couple days. You don't want any of her sutures to pop open. To post to Dr. Cheng, you have to go to the Ask a Vet forum at the link posted above in the original post.
