Hi Igor963

I’m not sure whether you realise that this site and forum is about wild European hedgehogs (i.e. not pet hedgehogs). European hedgehogs should not be kept as pets. If you have found a wild hedgehog which is sick, the best thing to do is to take it to a wild hedgehog carer. To find your nearest wild hedgehog carer, please see https://www.britishhedgehogs.org.uk/found-a-hedgehog/
Unless you have some expertise, it isn’t a good idea to try to treat a wild hedgehog yourself.
