  I got my bun spayed 3 days ago. I looked at the stitches this morning, and I noticed a tiny bit of like yellowish crusty stuff. The vet said it is fine if she licks her stitches, and she has been. My question is, is that an infection or something to be worried about?
  I felt the insision and it feels the slightest bit warm… Is that bad?
  Please help!!!!

  Some crustiness is normal. Redness and swelling are what you want to look out for.
