My dog has got tennis elbow we had taken him to the vet they removed the liquid for 3 days it was small then it became big again is there any remedy?

Dr. Supriya

Hi Samarth, this condition is called as elbow hygroma. Due to excessive friction there will be fluid accumulation in the elbow. It is important to give them soft bedding and avoid rough surfaces while sleeping

Samarth Praveen

He sleeps in cage which is covered with bed

Dr. Supriya

Can you make him sleep on the floor for some time instead of cage. Is it possible?

Samarth Praveen

Only on floor or with bed ?

Dr. Supriya

With bed

Samarth Praveen

Ok doctor thank you will get back to you by evening

Dr. Supriya

If hygroma is already present it should treated either by applying pressure bandage or remove it surgically

Samarth Praveen

Is there any cream can we apply

Samarth Praveen
