    Two 5cc nurflor two days apart and let him alone for two weeks ! Stiffness may just be build up of fluid at the joints ! Let him out if at all possible the run around gets the fluid moving

    Talk to your vet. Best person to be give you advice about what antibiotics to use. You could try bathing the navel with warm water. Old-fashioned but useful.
