Is my pet's swollen foot from a wheel cut bumblefoot or infection?

Question

Does he look like he has bumblefoot or just swollen padding? He's recently cut his feet on his wheel and I've been applying antibiotic ointment to not risk infection. Pet's info: Exotic | Unknown - Exotic | Male | neutered | 1lb

In comparison with the other feet, there is marked swelling. This could be due to infection/bumblefoot. Ideally, Cedric should be examined by your veterinarian to confirm infection and treated if indicated.
