knot on my dogs tummy from being fixed

My do got fixed about four days ago. I noticed on the third day a knot came up where her stitches are. I called the vet and he said it came up because she licked it. I put the lamp shade on and the puffeness around the stitches went away within a few hours. there isn’t anything coming out as far as puss and stuff. is it okay for her ?

Answer #1

The area where you have a surgery and stitches will be puffy. There will be a little swelling. If you see no redness or infection I would say she is fine.

Answer #2

I think so.if the vet said it is ok thentrust them the most …tell your dog I said get well soon!lol
