White bumps turn scabbie and flaky on back Hello there,
My yorkie is almost 3 years old and he has been experiencing some acne-like bumps along his lower back. These bumps are like pus-filled like and after a few days they just turn flakey and scabbie like. His brother, likes to lick the area where there are bumps when we are not home.
We have gone to the vet twice, first they prescribe an oral medication, and the symptom was still present and I can't remember what oral it was. And recently, we went back to checkup and the dr still doesn't know what is wrong and gave him a steroid shot and another oral medicine. The dr did say licking spreads them.
It has been 2 weeks and the bumps seem to move up and appearing closer to his neck. We try to monitor his brother from looking his back but he is still licking.
Could it be skin allergies?? He is currently on Merrick food but we plan to switch black to Blue. We also use K9 advantage as our flea prevention and I don't think it could be the K9 since he has been on it since he was a baby.
Thanks |
