If there is infection, she should be getting antibiotics. You can milk the udder, just discard the milk. Keeping the wound clean and dry will aid in healing. You can use diluted Betadine to clean it once or twice daily. Change the bedding frequently if she is in a stall. A serious wound should be addressed by a veterinarian experienced in treating small ruminants.
