    Hi,

    How is she in herself? This could be bad news and I think she needs a vet visit. If you want to try the economical approach an injection of oxytocin may help. If it doesn't work, then she will needs surgery.

    Yes. She needs to be examined by the vet. He/She will decide if an injection is appropriate.
