    she looks better, but somethings still wrong.
    Antibiotics take time to work and especially in amphibians. They take a long time to heal so you will need to be patient and persevere. Keep treating her. If you are worried about her not eating you can buy some Fluker's Repta Boost and administer dosage according to the instruction sheet included in the box. This is a medicated supplement for sick and malnourished reptiles and amphibians. You will have to force feed the dose using the syringe that is also included in the box. Use a plastic spoon upsidedown placed between the upper and lower jaw to gently and carefully pry the frog's mouth open to administer the dose. Once a day or once every other day may help keep her energy level up.
