My 7 year old Rotti had his front leg amputated two weeks ago and has begun to whimper and cry on a regular basis. Is this normal for this type of surgery and are there things I can do to alleviate his discomfort? He is currently on Tramadol, Gabapentin, Meloxicam. I welcome any comments or suggestions. Thank you!
Welcome, your future forum posts will not require moderation. What's your pup's name, and why the amputation?
Crying out may be a sign of phantom pain , which you can help alleviate with these tips. Watch our video with Dr. Pam discussing phantom pain and other common complications for more professional advice and please consult your vet with any serious concerns.
