Zoe sore on neck update

Heavenly Herps Sep 03, 2003 09:33 AM

About aweek ago I posted a picture of Zoe's sore on her neck. I went to the health food store and bought a tube of Aloe Vera gel with vitamin A and E. I came home and cleaned her sore with Nolvasan soap and have been applying this gel Day and Night . Do you think it is looking any better? It seems to be drying out. It isnt oozing and bloody anymore.

it does look a tad less "weepy" you would know best if it is getting better. did the vet take any cultures of the area or anything? hrmmm...

I didn't see the first pic but this one doesn't look too pleasant. Have you had your vet take a culture? I'm thinking he/she could tell what that was in a heartbeat.

I was surfing around the other day and ran into a site w/pic's of bd's who had yeast infections on their skin. Some of them looked very similar to the pic you've posted. Can't remember the site but, you could probably find it w/a few www.google.com searches. You might want to check it out.
Good luck,
Rebecca
