mix lab dog having pain in left front leg...
I Have a mix lab (her mother had an accidental mating) .Her name is Ginger .She is 9 years old and is having pain in her front left leg since few months now (almost 6 months) . Since i am at a remote place with no vets around so in the beginning i suppressed the pain with pain killer buffer 250 mg.but this pain kept on surfacing in between . this time i tried homeopathy for her treatment . last week i gave her Rhus Tox 30C Twice a week .15 DROPS DILUTION IN TEASPOON OF WATER. i seemed to work but the pain kept surfacing after 3 days .So i tried brioynia 30 c two days back .One dose same like earlier but it didnt help .So today since she was in pain i gave her Rhus Tox 30C (15 drops in a teaspoon ) in the afternoon and after 6 hrs again in the evening .But the pain seems aggravated and she is having severe pain while changing her position even ..so now at night i have given her 1 BRUFFEN 250MG And Arnica Mont. 30C (same dosage). Someone please advice on the treatment i can give her as i have to go on a trip for 10 days urgently leaving her behind with a help after 11 July. I still have 3-4 Days with me to treat her .Almost all important homeopathic medicines are available with me as I always carry a kit of 50 medicines.Ajay malaotar on 2015-07-07

as i had told you before that i am leaving for 10 days from 11 july and wanted to start the treatment but now i am left with 2 days only .. i know the treatment requires detailed analysis but i have answered almost all answers leaving these two ..how can i observe pressure or warm or cold compress to establish what affects her in what way within 2 days if the pain is not there from yesterday..and she being a dog cannot express much .i can observe only when there is pain as in the morning she had some pain after coming back from the walk .now she seems fine.Please advice a treatment if possible before tonight as day after i have to leave her behind and that is bothering me a lot..

I can't prescribe unless I know the crucial facts of the case. Maybe you should continue with Brufen till you return and can establish the Q-4&5.
fitness 9 years ago
