Three days after starting Otomax, the ear being treated became very sensitive.
I don't see any blisters but you can barely touch some areas with a Q-tip without making her yelp. This isn't deep in the canal either. It is the visable surface. The vet said to stop cleaning it and if it isn't better in a day, she needs to see her again. It isn't better. 
Ellie is so sensitive to some things.
So to the vet we go again.
Thanks for listening.  |
That's so interesting! We were just at the vet on Saturday and Maggie has a yeast infection in her left ear and she was given the same Otomax and Chlorhexiderm to use. I noticed last night how red and raw her ear was...I'll have to look closer at it now and see if it isn't a reaction to the medicine. Thanks for the info
