Hi all, my now 8 month old female lab was spayed end of February, 2021. It was not until March 31st when she had her stitches removed. We noticed one bump over her incision (size of a pea) during her stiches removal visit and the vet said it was just fluid that would eventually go away. He instructed me that she was cleared to run around and exercise as much as she pleased since her stiches were removed. It has now been 2 weeks since her stiches were removed and there are now bumps everywhere on and around her stitches. Has anyone had a similar experience and has any idea as to what it can be? If so, what has the vet suggested/how was your pet treated?
I have been taking her to the Banfield vet almost every two weeks since I wanted to make sure her incision was not infected and they told me it was not and sent me home. But now it clearly looks abnormal. I have made yet another visit to the vet but wanted to know what you all think? Personally, the vets have not been very helpful throughout this whole healing process and the costs directed towards this recovery processes is not pretty either.
I have attached pictures of her incision after removal of stiches on March 31, 2021 (2 wks ago) and now - April 14
