sophie is spayed, but has swollen labia and it acting a bit

weirder than yoosh....lol......just a little weirder.  but seriously, i've been doing reading about this, and although we all know the internet

is full of good info, i'd like more SPECIFIC info from all of you wonder-bull bully lovers!   what frightens me is reading that sometimes, 

part of the uterus is left behind with the spaying, and that could cause the false estrus....

....

....

more info....she was spayed about 3 months ago, absolutely no problems.  sometimes i've noticed her labia seem a tad

swollen, but today they are much more so (not alarming...yet!), but the other new thing is that her inner labia are also

protruding a bit.... what i REALLY wanna know is, does this warrant a trip to the vet?   

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!  :-)   and have a bully-eautiful day !!!

.....

Stella's nether parts

They also get "swollen" and red sometimes and I apply Zincofax diaper ointment.  She's had chronic bladder infections in the past and I think that sometimes her tinkle gets a bit acidic and irritates her lady parts.  The Zincofax cools things down usually.  Might try that before consulting the vet - unless the situation worstens, of course.

Does she have any discharge?

Or a fever? Those are the two things I would worry about if she was recently spayed.

Morgan had a stump abcess after her spay and became very sick. The first sign of a problem with her was a discharge.

I agree with Jacinda.....

the same thing happened with one of our recent rescues.  She had a stump problem and was constantly swollen and sometimes had discharge due to an infection.
