Took my lab to the vet a couple of months ago as she had a limp. Vet said it was arthritis and gave pain killers to be taken one a day. The pills haven't really helped and she still limps badly. I noticed yesterday that one of the middle pads on one of her front feet is swollen, and the swollen toe is beginning to cross over the other middle toe. Cant find any info on net about crossed, swollen toes. Can anyone help please?

either it has something in the inside paws or some fungal infection in the other side of the paw .it may also be the result of an insect bite. get the paw washed by warm water and treat it with iodine and clean it properly, it may help

verify her gums. in the event that they're mild take her to a vet asap. otherwise replace the style or variety of the food you're utilising. make confident she does not have get admission to to any rubbish or something she would be ready to consume once you're no longer finding. Labradors like to locate and consume rubbish. additionally, definite at 3 months she remains a doggy and could be on doggy food. replace her to person food at approximately 18 months.

it is probalby infected she needs to go to the vet. and just like people if a doctor gives you meds and they don't work talk to teh doctor don't continue. Sometimes they can get a say bee sting or splinter that's really small and you don't notice it.

Check her pads yourself. Could be a cut, splinter, some foreign object, stone bruise...
Baby aspirin, 1 a day for arthritis.
