yes, not a problem. Gas-X is just Simethicone or similar, that's used to keep the bubbles from forming in stomach. It causes a change in surface tension of the liquids in your stomach is all. Weaker surface tension prevents the bubbles of gas from forming.

If you purchased the pup from the pet store or a breeder I think you could take it back, or at least ask them to refund you the amount you need to pay for the surgery to repair the hernia. Take a copy of the papers from your vet visit with you and get an estimate on the surgery. The surgery is usually simple and your pup should recover with no problems.


How long will it take testicular swelling go down after open hernia surgery. It has been a month and one testicle is still large?

It will depend upon the type of surgery. If it was a small hernia it should settle in about six weeks. A large hernia going down to the scrotum, may have large amount of haematoma and it may take up to 3 months. Swelling in the testis can be due to infection - Orchitis or compromised vascularity of the Testis and you need to have a scan to confirm / exclude this and you need to see your Doctor. In a large inguinoscrotal hernia part of the sac is left with the testis and if this is the case, the testis may always be slightly bigger than the other side.
