help! scale rot? looks terrible!

Alcohol!
and lack of any kinda of antibiotic

Yes, he recommended I use as little of the alcohol as possible. I squeezed out any excess from the pads. Also, Chlorhex, which is the main ingredient in the pads, as well as the skin cleanser liquid I bought, is an Antiseptic/Antimicrobial

There has been lots of good advice here so there is no need for me to rehash it but something I haven't seen is a warning about the type of neosporin you use.
Make sure the neosporin does not have pain killer... no Neosporin +, no extra strength polysporin, nothin...

My ball had scale rot (not this bad) but moving him into a tub (which can be kept super clean) along with daily cleanings and applications of neosporin he healed up in about 2 weeks. Just keep at it with what the vet says and he will heal up. It will probably start to look worse before it gets better because it will dry out... Looks really bad when it dries out, but once he sheds it will looks worlds better...

Thank you, I've read that elsewhere as well, and made sure I didn't get any with pain killer. Any idea WHY that's an issue tho? Just wondering not doubting.

And now that I'm fairly certain its a burn, I'm feeling a bit more comfortable. That means it was a quick mistake, one that I can easily learn from, and one that she will survive, and after a few sheds, possibly without scars.

She seems to be doing pretty well
What a trooper
