Whites Tree Frog infected fat pad after wound?

Sorry to hear about your frog. I have a lot of success using Bactine on the wound. Bactine, NOT Betadine is safe for amphibians.

Apply Bactine by swab or spray to the wound twice daily until clear.

Thank you, I used to use bactine all the time but unfortunately they changed the formula to have lidocaine which can cause sever nerve damage in frogs so I can no longer use it. Now the other thing of fat (that’s what I’m just assuming) is coming out and the original one has fallen out. I have never seen this before but she’s in quarantine and I keep using the triple antibiotic. The antibiotic contains the main ingredient in Bactine along with polysporne and neosporne

I think generic antibiotic should be okay if there are no painkillers in it.
