Infection in eye?
I took my syrian hamster Luna to the vet on Saturday morning (5 days ago) because I noticed that her eye was very red, sore and her cheek was very swollen. She was also sneezing a lot. The vet prescribed Baytril for the infection and Loxicom for the swelling and pain.
I took her back 3 days later (yesterday) as he suggested and they put her under anaesthetic to see inside her mouth, incase it was an abcess or something stuck in her pouch, but nothing was found. I was told to continue with the medication and to clean out her eye.
Since then, her eye is stuck shut with crusty discharge and when we rinse her eye with warm water loads of yellow puss pops out, as well as blood. She also has blood and some crusty discharge coming out of her nose and she's still sneezing a lot.
I'm worried as she's not eating (probably because of the pain) and I don't want any of this to damage her eye. She is still quite young, only a year old, and I don't want anything to happen to her. We are due to see the vet again in a week. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this or has any advice on what I can do to keep her comfortable in the meantime or maybe get her eating a bit?
Thanks in advance!
