It appears that Bella has developed an abscess at the site of the cut. This needs to be drained and she needs to be placed on an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory for treatment. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine the area so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
