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!

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.
