Dog (chronic ear infections)

Post by rottlover20022000 »

Hi, Just wanted to know if anyone knows a remedy for a dog with
chronic ear infections. She has been to the vet. three times and they
flushed her ears out, each time they put her under, then they sent
her home with antibiotics and ear cream, I think her immune system is
gone, it just keeps getting worse. Thanks

Assuming this is an external ear condition, it is ?? inflammation of an
underlying dermatitis. The character of discharge smell etc need to be
taken into account also constitutional of dog. Maybe Hepar Sulph but
depends on whole picture, Jean

You should always choose a remedy based on the animal's individual symptoms. Look at the nature of her discharge (smell, color, etc.) and what seems to make it better or worse. Is it seasonal? Does it follow a dip in the water?

Having said that, I'll note that my Black lab no longer suffers from ear infections since a dose of Silica five years ago.

Peace,
Cinnabar
