Proplapse Treatment?

[elevatethis]

Thanks Becky, I'll just try the sugar soak tonight. As of yesterday, the prolapsed tissue was still pinkish and moist, so I think he's still got a shot at recovering from the prolapse w/o veterinary treatment. Thanks for the advice.

After a few sugar-water soaks, antibiotic ointment, and a clean tub, the prolapse appears to be getting better. It really just looks like the swelling has gone down, and luckily the tissue still looks good. Its been about a week now, I'm hoping the hemipenes can retract by themselves...

Glad to hear your making progress! I was wondering how the little guy was doing. Thanks for the update!

The way it is looking, and especially how normal the tissue still appears, I'm starting to wonder if he even WANTS them to go back in. He's still got an appetite and ate twice yesterday. Who knows what is going on with this little guy.....
