This is the second time Felix has had this type of wound. the first happened shortly after his neuter in october. It looked exactly like this except it was on the back of his front leg. this on is on his neck. It started out small and scabby, and has grown. It scabs over every day but the scabs rub off easily and it looks just like the pics under the scabs. It is about the size of a dime or a penny. He scratches at it also. I had a bandage on his wound with bacitracin and it stayed on for a few hours until he scratched it off.
I am pretty sure it is a staph infection, but i'm wondering now if it could be a food allergy since this is the second one in 4 months. He doesn't scratch anywhere else though.
Any thoughts?
Thanks for looking!
