Pet's info: Small Animal | Guinea Pig | Male | unneutered
Hi, I cut my 1 year old Guinea pigs nails anout 2-3 weeks ago and today while I was doing another trim I noticed a cut on the side of his foot. I was just wondering if it looked like bumble foot or if it was just a simple cut from running around on the lawn.

It could be the start of bumble foot. Be sure that his cage is softly bedded and he is not standing on hard surfaces. I just recommend you try this Vetericyn Spray Gel on the affected are a couple times per day until healed. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-plus-antimicrobial-wound-and-skin-hydrogel-for-pets
