Because now that I think about it, about 5 days ago, he was going crazy on the bed--does 360's on it playing, and he slammed into the PC desk's edge/side (he can't see, but usually never runs into things- he is amazing. He takes corners running, leaps onto the bed and play.
Well, a few days ago, as I said, smacked into the desk side (wood) and I knew it hurt, and saw his front lower jaw hit it. I opened his lips, and the same side that is swollen was where he hit it. (he had a tiny bit of bloody on his lower k9 (fang) [img]smile.gif[/img] he acted like nothing happened. just a tiny spot of blood, and it was fine.
What I am wondering is could he have caused a tiny fracture in his jawbone? That, I AM SURE causes swelling. [img]smile.gif[/img] And the vet didn't do xrays, because we thought it was the tooth--which he said didn't look too bad, but needed cleaning. So hmmmmmm
What do you do with tiny fractures of the jaw? let them heal? (for a cat)..
I'll google and see what I can find..
