Injured White's "Dumpy" Tree Frog!

[John]

I would do it the one time and see how she does - I wouldn't hit it with peroxide again. Keep her on some paper towelling or in a bare-bottomed tank with a hiding place but nothing in there than could get into the wound. Clean this little hospital terrarium daily and keep an eye on the wound. I think it's quite likely she'll get better on her own but I am not a vet - as Kurt advised, a trip to the vet is probably the best thing for her, but if that's not possible for you then this is an alternative. Obviously we can't promise anything though.

Oh and you should find out what caused the wound in the first place and remove it from the terrarium.

My whites (Dumper) had a similar but smaller spot (like a pimple) when I first got him. Of course at the time, I didn't think much of it since I had no real experience and Dumper's skin was a wreck. But anyway, it faded away after a couple days but left a permenant white spot that continues to fade where it used to be. His pet store home was terrrible, 6 WTFs in a <5 gallon (dirty) space and I think that may have been part of the cause. Hopefully your whites condition is minor like Dumper's was.

Sounds like you saved yours from a bad situation! That's awesome! We got Andrea (the giant) in a pet store that specializes in reptiles and amphibians, but she was in a tiny enclosure with another white's that had a sore on her lip. We were going to get the other, but the sore made up nervous. When we realized that Andrea (the giant) had a club foot, it was all over! We had to have her!

I understand! Thank you very much!!! And I found a broken staple in the half-pipe log that was in the terrarium. I have removed it! Thank you, John and Kurt. You both have been very helpful!!! I'll keep ya'll posted on how your advise helps!

[Kurt]

You're welcome.

[John]

Yes you are quite welcome - we'll keep our fingers crossed for her recovery.

[Tiffandi09]

It looks like she's already doing better! Check out the new pic! I posted yesterday's pic too just as a comparison... It looks *SO* much better! Thanks again for all the help! Hopefully she won't be "in the hospital terranium" for too long!

Thanks again!!!

You're welcome again! Thanks for the update.

[Kurt]

I looks like it has cleared and has begun to heal. Just make sure to keep it clean so it doesn't get infected.

wow, sorry I just got to this thread, life is busy. I am glad to hear that she is doing better, and that is quite an improvement of her wound! Keep us updated and I hope she makes a full and speedy recovery!
