I need help with my Vet Results. Please.

Hi I took my lovebird for a crop exam and it came back with Staph Aureus and she’s gonna get antibiotics but I’m confused what this all means. I’ve never heard of this before and is it serious? Is the medication dangerous?
Please help.

She has an infection that should respond very well to antibiotics. Just like you've probably taken antibiotics before for an infection, that is what your vet has prescribed. It's pretty routine but important that you follow the vet's treatment plan.

All illness in birds should be taken seriously as many times they’ll die without treatment. So yes, serious enough. As long as you medicate her as directed and bring her for her follow-up to make sure she’s clear, she should be okay.
