If it is a tooth abscess penn G would be a good idea. Twice a day for 5 to 7 days.

I am just now getting around to send a sample off for testing. The puss was not very thick. I've read if it is CL it will be like tooth paste. I've also read CL has no odor, this stuff smells bad. So I am very hopeful!

I got test results back today. NO CL!! So next, how to get rid of the almost baseball size knot on her jaw. The vet says they would cut it to drain it and flush it out. Really don't want to pay the vet bill for that and would like to do it myself. Anyone have any suggestions how to do it and what medication I should give to keep from infection?
