Thank you very much Dr Christina. We love our dogs and spend much time with them.

Many thanks, Dr. Christina and Dr. Jeff! The Arnica worked like a charm. Within about 15 minutes her BEAM was notably better. We've continued to dose her a few times a day for pain/healing. How long should we continue this for? Also, is there a detox protocol for the anesthesia and the metacam...

Thanks, Dr. Jeff! Would it be the 10/Q-tip? Is it "normal" for recovery to take this long (knowing every dog is different)? At what point would it be an "emergent" situation if she isn't recovering?

For reference, attached is the receipt from the vet showing a breakdown of the dental procedure today. And here is a picture of her gait as of a few minutes ago. Tagging @Dr. Jeff @Dr. Christina Thank you!

Thank you, Dr. Jeff!

My dog has swollen anal glands that are causing her discomfort. She also has an ulcerating mammary tumor. Dr. Jeff recommended giving her an epsom salt soak to soothe her and I’m wondering what the ratio of epsom salt to gallon of warm water might be. I bought her a shallow basin for the bath...

Thank you, Dr. Jeff and Dr. Christina! We'll keep you posted.

Thanks so much to everyone for your wonderful and thoughtful responses! Kiki has taken the Arnica remedy with a few drops of milk, her leg bump looks better, and there is no more bleeding. We'll continue to support her with the ways suggested going forward. 🥰

@Dr. Jeff last night we gave her gabapentin via syringe because we wouldn’t be able to monitor her pain/discomfort overnight, but this morning when trying to do the Arnica via Qtip, she would not let us get near her mouth and she was getting stressed out/upset. Not sure a syringe would be any...

They actually had 200c Arnica at Nature’s Way! :)

Thank you so much, Dr. Jeff! This is wonderful! Jessica is going to grab the 30c from Nature's Way (they don't have higher potency there) and will order the 10M online. We'll check out the articles as well and monitor her BEAM/comfort level closely! 🙏

Also, oddly, I just noticed this strange lump on the underside of her front leg. It's the same leg that the IV was in for surgery. Could it be related?

Many thanks to all for your responses! We will check out all of the resources you suggested ASAP. Regarding a full intake, we are definitely interested (we just didn't see an option for that). Perhaps we can discuss that today on our 15-minute call, Dr. Jeff? Thanks again and look forward to...
