Hello,
It’s been a little while since I’ve been in membership. I tell EVERYONE I know about HA. Hopefully they have signed up!
My indoor/outdoor cat Junior has a swollen bottom lip on one side. I took a video to show you and attached it. I can’t tell if he got bitten by a bug, bee, or anything else. There’s no bleeding or opening. Unless it’s a swollen hive. Or maybe it’s from stomatitis? I am looking for a new vet to get all his dental work taken care of. Last year this is what the vet said about his oral care.
Evidence of advanced dental disease: generalized gingivitis, heavy dental calculus, redness, and swelling.
Could the swelling be from this? I put some Souvereign Silver topically., and gave him one round of 30 c arnica for the swelling and hopefully it will help if it is painful. Was this a good idea?
Is there anything else you recommend I can do until I get him into a new vet for his dental work?
Thank you!! @Dr. Christina @Dr. Jeff @Dr. Jean Hofve @AnnaH
