Bone Spur

My chinchilla has been fighting bumblefoot for years. I got her when she was 7 so as far as I know she hasn't been on any wiring. Her feet just keep cracking and getting infected. I have no clue what to do. I've tried CEH cream, Soother plus, another type of topical, and bag balm. Shes been to the vet countless times for this. I'm afraid that her body may get used to the antibiotics eventually. She's been put on metacam at .05 ml as a chronic pain medicine. My vet is hoping to manage this problem without surgery. My girl is around 13 years old. Shes super healthy in every other regard. Sadly, I almost never gibe her dust baths because it dries her feet out super bad regardless of how much ointment i put on after. Her feet just keep going dry and cracking. She's on fleece liner. I wash them with an arm and hammer sensitive detergent and don't use any static cling sheets because of the fabric softener in them makes her feet worse. She's been on mazuri the whole time I've had her. Someone please help me. I don't know what I should do to make things easier and more comfortable for her.
