Hello, thanks for taking the time to read my message. I am the owner of a two-months-old cane corso who, after jumping off my bed, hurted her paw. Although I cant describe it accurately, I do have clear pictures of it, which are attached to this post. Unfortunately, because of the quarantine, I have yet to find a vet that will attend to her. In the mean time, I would like to know if anyone has an idea of what her problem is and, thus, what I can do to alleviate her pain.

Poor Colette. Unfortunately there are no pictures attached to your post. I recommend resting her for the next 48 hours. No running, jumping, or playing. Take her out to toilet on a leash, and bring her right back in when she's done. If she still appears painful after this time, then I would take her into the vet for an exam. The vet can diagnose where the pain is coming from, and can dictate a treatment plan for it. She may also benefit from some pain medications, which the vet can prescribe. Please do not give her any human pain medications, as many are toxic to dogs and can be fatal if given. I hope this helps!
