salclalin 240 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 If you mean A Knocked Up Toe,Cut the Nail Back so it Bleeds.That way it Releases the Pressure on the Toe.And plenty of Rest.My young Bitch Done her Toe a Few years Back.After i cut her Nail and released the Pressure she was Right in a Few weeks without any Callous on Her Toe.

FROM YOUR DESCRIPTION ITS HARD 2 TELL WHETHER IT`S A BREAK, FRACTURE OR BRUISING. CUTTING THE TOENAIL OFF IS EXTREME & IF IT IS INFECTED USUALY THE PRESSURE OF THE PUSS WILL START TO SEEP OUT WHERE NAIL BEGINS. THOUGH IF NO FOREIGN BODIES HAVE ENTERED THE TOE IT WONT BE INFECTED... GET IT 2 A DECENT VET AS YOU ARE BETTER GETTING A PROFESSIONAL OPINION THAN MESSING ABOUT WITH THE SEASON NOT THAT FAR AWAY.
