asha Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 hi all, my grey has a swelling on the side of one toe , the vet said its bumble foot but all the sites about bumble foot on the internet say it only effects the bottom of the feet, shes had antibiotics for 2 weeks so far, redness has gone but still got a whitish lump there which looks bigger, has anyone had/got a parrot with this problem as im not sure thats what it is doesnt even look the same as pics ive seen about it thanx:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranaz Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I am sorry no experience with bumble foot, but is it painful for your grey? can she stand on it? Where did this come from? Is the vet an avian vet? If not maybe better to have a second opinion, cos a friend of mine, had an infection in his geys talon, which lead to cutting off completely one toe, so I am worried, especially if it is not getting better Please keep us posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asha Posted December 25, 2009 Author Share Posted December 25, 2009 hi it doesnt seem to be painfull and shes still standing on it no probs, no idea where it came from coz her cage is always clean and she never even poops in it, the vets not an avian vet as i live on an island there r no avian vets here:(, i spoke to the vet last night as i couldnt get her in the travel cage to take her and she got real stressed out and he siad take her back in the new yr and might need op.
