Pet Dermatitis : Type Of Skin Problem Of Pets

Dog Skin Problems:

The sound of a dog constantly scratching or licking its own skin can be as irritating as dragging nails on a chalkboard. But don’t blame your pet for these bad habits; an underlying skin condition is probably the culprit. Possible causes range from parasites to allergies to underlying illnesses. DERMISULE- A Homeopathic Veterinary Medicine for Dogs and Cats that is very helpful in treating skin problems.
The following are some of the most common canine skin problems.

Folliculitis: Superficial bacterial folliculitis is an infection that causes sores, bumps, and scabs on the skin. This skin abnormality is easy to observe in short-haired dogs. In long-haired dogs, the most obvious symptoms may be a dull coat and shedding with scaly skin underneath. Folliculitis often occurs in conjunction with other skin problems such as mange, allergies, or injury. Treatment may include oral antibiotics and antibacterial ointments or shampoos.

Impetigo: Another type of bacterial infection, impetigo, is most common in puppies. It causes pus-filled blisters that may break and crust over. The blisters usually develop on the hairless portion of the abdomen. Impetigo is rarely serious and can be treated with a topical solution. In a small number of cases, the infection may spread or persist.

Seborrhea: Seborrhea causes a dog’s skin to become greasy and develop scales (dandruff). In some cases, it’s a genetic disease that begins when a dog is young and lasts a lifetime. But most dogs with seborrhea develop scaling as a complication of other medical problems, such as allergies or hormonal abnormalities. In these cases, it is important to treat the underlying cause so that symptoms do not recur. Seborrhea itself can be treated with certain medicated shampoos.

Ringworm: Despite its name, ringworm is not caused by a worm but is a condition resulting due to a fungal infection. The term “ring” comes from circular patches that can form anywhere but are often found on a dog’s head, paws, ears, and forelegs. Inflammation, scaly patches, and hair loss often surround the lesions. Puppies less than a year old are the most susceptible, and the infection can spread quickly between dogs in a kennel or to pet owners at home. Various anti-fungal treatments are available.

 Shedding and Hair Loss (Alopecia): Anyone who shares their home with dogs knows that they shed their coat. The normality of this shedding depends on the breed, time of year, and environment. But sometimes, stress, poor nutrition, or illness can cause a dog to lose more hair than usual. If abnormal or excessive shedding persists for more than a week, or you notice patches of missing fur, consult your veterinarian.

 Mange (Mites): Mange is a skin disorder caused by tiny ectoparasites called mites. Sarcoptic mange, also known as canine scabies, spreads easily among dogs and can also be transmitted to people, but these parasites don’t survive on humans. The symptoms are intense itching, reddening, sores, and hair loss. A dog’s ears, face, and legs are most commonly affected. Demodectic mange can cause bald spots, scabbing, and sores, but it is not contagious between animals or people. Treatment depends on the type of mange.

Fleas: Fleas are the bane of any pet owner. One may not see these tiny insects themselves, but flea droppings or eggs are usually visible on a dog’s coat. Other symptoms include excessive licking or scratching, scabs, and hot spots. Severe flea infestations can cause blood loss and anemia and even make your dog susceptible to other parasites, such as tapeworms. Treatment may include a topical and/or oral flea killer and a thorough cleaning of the pet’s home and yard.

Ticks: Ticks, like fleas, are external parasites that feed on the blood of their hosts. You can spot a tick feeding on a dog with the naked eye. To properly remove a tick, gently pull it straight out. Twisting or pulling too hard may cause the head to remain lodged in a dog’s skin, which can lead to infection. Place the tick in a jar with some alcohol for a couple of days and dispose of it once it is dead. In addition to causing blood loss and anemia, ticks can transmit Lyme disease and other potentially serious bacterial infections.

Color or Texture Changes: A dog’s skin color or coat texture change can be a warning sign of several common metabolic or hormonal problems. They can also result from an infection or other skin disorders. Usually, a simple blood test can identify the underlying cause. Be sure to ask your veterinarian about any significant changes in the dog’s coat.

Dry, Flaky Skin: Dry, flaky skin can be a red flag for a number of problems. It’s a common symptom of allergies, mange, and other skin diseases. But most often, dry or flaky skin is nothing serious. Make sure you are feeding your high-quality pet food. Some dogs simply show dry skin in the winter.

 Acral Lick Granuloma: Also called acral lick dermatitis. This is a frustrating skin condition caused by compulsive, relentless licking of a single area, most commonly on the exposed side of the lower leg. The area doesn’t heal quickly, and the resulting pain and itching can lead the dog to keep licking the same spot. Treatment includes discouraging the dog from licking, either by using a bitter taste topical solution or an Elizabethan collar. Also, ask the vet whether a topical solution or corticosteroid helps.

Skin Tumors: If you notice a hard lump on the dog’s skin, point it out to your vet as soon as possible. Dogs can develop cancerous tumors on their skin. The only way to confirm a diagnosis of cancer is through a biopsy of the lump. If the lump is small enough, a veterinarian may recommend removing it entirely. This can yield a diagnosis and treatment in a single shot. For tumors that have not spread, this may be the only treatment needed.

 Hot Spots: Hot spots, also called acute moist dermatitis, are small areas that appear red, irritated, and inflamed. They are most commonly found on a dog’s head, hips, or chest and often feel hot to the touch. Hot spots result from a wide range of conditions, including infections, allergies, insect bites, or excessive licking and chewing. Treatment consists of cleansing the hot spot and addressing the underlying condition.

 Immune Disorders: In rare cases, skin lesions or infections that don’t heal can indicate an immune disorder in your dog. One of the best known is lupus, a disease that affects dogs and people. Lupus is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks its own cells. Symptoms include skin abnormalities and kidney problems. It can be fatal if untreated.

Anal Sac Disease: As if dog poop wasn’t smelly enough, dogs release a foul-smelling substance when they do their business. The substance comes from small anal sacs, which become impacted if they aren’t emptied in a proper way. The hallmark for impacted anal sacs is that the dog scoots his anus along the ground. Other symptoms include biting or licking the anal area. A vet can manually examine the intact anal sacs and treat them accordingly. But in severe cases, the sacs may be surgically removed.
