Looks like he may be going on prednisone to bring the swelling down. Fingers crossed that he doesn't have any weird side effects from the pred. He also split the scab open again and the wound is a bit bigger. *sigh*

I couldn't agree more

He probably shouldn't have been exposed to the sun, but it just didn't occur to me that the sun could be a bad thing. The swelling got pretty bad yesterday evening but had gone down somewhat this morning.
