As long as he is getting bathed and brushed there isn't really much you can do. She is going to confirm with the Vet to see.. I’m going to start to brush him more, since I get him shaved I really don’t brush him.. his hair is cut pretty short like ¼ of an inch LOL. I do still bathe him, so I will just start brushing him daily see if that helps. I’m sure brushing will help stimulate the skin, pores and all that good stuff. I’m just glad it is nothing serious, I knew it wasn’t but we all know how it is- they are our babies~ Thank you all for the support.. I’m still trying to truck it at work.

Jada got one of these on her ear before, and my vet said to use rubbing alcohol to help clear the clogged pore.

Well from what I remember ( they gave me an IV with drugs LOL) They stick these needles in the area then they start a spark and it burns the nerves LOL. They do the procedure using the cat scan xray machine so it can guide the Dr where he needs to be.

My Grandpa had this done due to really really bad back pain and sadly it did not work for him but we are not find anything if working for his so I hope you have better luck and that it works for you.

Glad it was nothing serious. Make sure you take care of yourself and if its hurting go home and rest and don't push it.

So glad to hear Peanut just has a clogged oil gland. Maybe you can try the derma roller everyone's raving about in that skin care thread

Just kidding!!

I also have 5 herniated discs in my back, so I totally feel your pain. I've been getting epidural injections for years. I'm actually interested in that procedure you're having now. I've tried all kinds of crazy treatments for my back, but I haven't heard about that one. I might have to PM you about that. Feel better!!

chachi · 07-29-2013, 11:38 AM

Im so sorry you are in so much pain I wish there was something I could do to take it away. Im keeping you in my good thoughts and prayersand hope the pain eases up soon. Im glad Peanuts bumps ended up being nothing serious

Verbena · 07-29-2013, 11:57 AM

I am glad it was nothing serious with Peanut. I know our babies are everything. You do need to take it easy. Back problems are not fun. I hope the procedure works for you. Fingers and Lots of paws crossed here

Really glad to hear that Pnut is ok. Now you get better!!

MandiesMom · 07-29-2013, 12:07 PM

Glad to see it wasn't anything serious with Peanut. I think brushing him will help, too. I know massaing the scalp on a person helps, so can't hurt right? And, you get some extra bonding time

Feel better!

Ah thanks Michelle. I will try that! Did Jada act like he hurt her when you put the alcohol on it?

What is this derma roller? LOL Ouch girl! No good. I have been through the injections, they did nothing for me. Do you have a Pain Mangement Dr? If so you can ask him about the Radio frequency Ablation for Arthritis Back, Neck, and Joint Pain. That's what it is called, well the real term- I just say burn my nerves. LOL

lovespandp · 07-29-2013, 12:59 PM

I'm so glad to hear it isn't anything serious with Peanut. Man I love that little guy so much and now a days we see a bump or a lump and it is hard for us not to think the C word..

Thank you guys for the good thoughts and prayers. I hope this works out for me too. I hate being in pain 24/7 I can’t even play with my niece who I love so much without hurting. I hate it. It is so hard to say what the outcome will be since everyone is so different.. Hopefully I get some relief.
