Default Re: Help!!! Bumblefoot remedies?

I would call the vet when you can, when they are open as this will need prescribed medication. The problem with Manuka honey is it is sticky and the hamster will get things stuck to their feet and that could cause more issues. Making up a solution of thyme, which is a natural antiseptic, may help soothe it but it really does need vet treatment.

Bumblefoot is usually acquired by walking on some kind of mesh, whether it's a wheel or a shelf.
