Thanks for using PetCoach! I am sorry to see Aly isn’t feeling well. It’s hard to say what is going on from the pictures alone. I would recommend soaking the foot in epsom salt for about 15 minutes tonight and then see your vet in the morning for a closer look. There may be an infection or abscess that needs drainage and antibiotics. Do not give her any medications tonight but the soak will help some of the swelling to get you until your appointment. Good luck and kisses to Aly!
