Lola should see a veterinarian as it appears her paw pads may be infected. You need to prevent her from licking even if that means an e-collar. You can try soaking her foot in a lukewarm Epsom salt solution once or twice daily as well. But to speed healing she may require oral antibiotics and probably pain medications as well. Good luck to Lola. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
