Now, more and more people keep dogs as pets at home. Dogs bring happiness to our life and enrich and enrich our life. But in the process of raising dogs, we sometimes feel very upset. For example, a dog has otitis media. After dogs suffer from otitis media, dogs and our lives will be greatly affected. As dog owners, how do we judge whether a dog has otitis media? Today, Xiaobian will tell you about the symptoms of dog otitis media and how to treat it.
When a dog has otitis media, he often shakes his head because his ears will feel uncomfortable. And inflammation can cause the dog’s temperature to rise. At the same time, dogs will feel obvious ear pain, even serious diseases, and their ears will be deaf. When the condition of external otitis media worsens and extends to the inside of the ear, it will cause internal otitis media. After a dog suffers from otitis media, the symptoms of the disease will also worsen.
It often shows that the eyes will tremble slightly, walking disorder and easy to fall. The dog will also tilt his body so that the sick ear is facing the ground, so the dog can’t help rollover on the ground. When the condition worsens, inflammation will compress the nervous system of the dog’s face, resulting in facial paralysis, conjunctivitis and rhinitis. Finally, inflammation invades the meninges, causing meningitis. If the condition drags on, the dog will eventually die.
When we find that the dog has the above symptoms, we should first wash the dog’s ears with 3% hydrogen peroxide. Both the external and internal auditory canal should be cleaned, and then erythromycin ointment should be applied to the dog’s ears twice a day. Then put ear drops into the dog’s ears. If the dog’s symptoms are relieved during the medication, do not stop the medication. Continue the medication until the dog is completely cured. If the dog’s symptoms are not relieved after 3-4 days of medication, the dog needs to be sent to a pet hospital for treatment.
