Bumblefoot treatment: is this ointment safe?

[Motherofchickensx2]

Discovered bumblefoot on my hen today, soaked her in warm water with espom salt (10 min x2), and believe I have removed the kernels.

She is currently sitting in my lap and all I can find in my house is "Triple Antibiotic Ointment" (image attached).

Is this ointment safe to use? And if it is not safe, will she be okay (for the night) if I only use guaze and vet tape to protect her feet?


Any advice is welcome and greatly appreciated

Yeah, that's the stuff to use. Fill the wound with that, put some non-stick gauze over it and sports tape (sticks to itself, doesn't stick to their skin) it into a little boot for her tonight.

You can use it as long it's not for pain relief.

Yep, that looks good! Calendula oil is a good idea too, it draws out infection, and I use it will success all the time for infected hangnails, and cuts. It works great! Here is a link- https://www.amazon.com/Herb-Pharm-C...=1605673099&sprefix=calendula,aps,1023&sr=8-5 Its expensive, but affective.
