Orio came into the Galapagos Clinic with what is called paraphimosis, or a prolapsed penis. What made matters worse for poor Orio, is that he had already been in this condition for an entire day! Paraphimosis is considered an emergency and must be dealt with immediately. Without treatment, the condition will only worsen and become more and more painful for the animal. Thankfully for Orio, the Doctors quickly sedated him and flushed and lubricated the exposed area and were able to fix poor Orio’s uncomfortable situation! When he woke up, Orio was completely back to normal. His owners were very happy to see their pup so happy and well again, and will be returning in a week for his castration appointment!
