 Pyoderma
Hi everyone! Today I had to take my little Lexi to the vet because of some skin issues. I noticed about a week ago she would be biting at her back legs. I didn't see anything there so I thought she just had an itch. She continued to do this and today I saw where she was biting under her back leg was red and bumpy. So I took her to the vet and she cut the hair to get a better look and it was a bump that looked similar to a pimple. She said it was a bacterial skin infection (pyoderma). Now Lexi has to take some medication for 10 days to make the infection go away. Just wondering if anyone here has had any experience with this and did it go any quickly? Did it ever come back? And did you ever find out what caused it? Thanks! |
