My 11-year-old dog, Ella, has an infection in her foot. She had surgery a week ago to remove a benign mass from her left foot, but I took the cone off too early, causing her to rip out the stitches and chew the other foot, which became swollen, bleeding, and smelly. She was put on antibiotics on Thursday. The leg looks better, but the foot still doesn't look good. It isn't draining anymore and doesn't smell. The foot looks black with yellow areas. She is currently on A entiCLAV 250 mg twice a day. Is there anything else I should be doing for her foot?
