Infection in German Shepherd

Question

Infection 1
My German Shepherd named Lucy is suffering from some kind of infection where nerves are found to swollen and red. If required I can also email pictures.

Answer
I am sorry but I cannot diagnose this. You need to post this to a vet or go see one where you live. I have never seen 'nerves' get swollen and red. This looks like a skin infection of some sort, but not a nerve problem.

Please re-post this to one of the vets in here, preferably Dr. Louis N. Gotthelf  who treats skin and ear diseases.
