Toe(nail) injury (cw: wound pic, blood)
Hi, its Sister again. She's a release that has been back indoors with access to the outdoor/release cage while a wound on her flank is healing.
A little while ago she came in licking her back foot. And proceeded to track blood all over the room when I tried to look at it.
The bleeding has slowed - she's still licking it some but when she stops it doesn't leave a blood spot. She's puffed up and very obviously uncomfortable.
I can't tell if she's ripped the nail up and what I'm seeing is the quick (pulp?), or if she somehow broke her toe and that's a bit of bone sticking through the skin (the very red bit sticking out from above the pad).
I do have a vet, but it's an hour drive and I don't want to put her through the stress unless unnecessary.
