How is fungal skin disease in dogs treated?
Dog fungal skin disease is treated with pet antifungal meds such as terbinafine spray, compounded ketoconazole ointment, or itraconazole ointment. For wider infection, medicated baths help, and clipping fur around the spot plus disinfecting the environment speeds recovery.
My dog has a lot of these scabs on its body — what medicine should I apply?
Large white crusts likely mean a fungal skin infection. Clip fur 3–4 cm around, use an Elizabethan collar, soften crusts with saline-soaked gauze and wipe off, then apply lysozyme ointment and terbinafine spray for at least a week. Keep the environment clean and disinfect the bed.
My dog has a patch of hair loss on its hind leg that is slowly spreading, with small red spots on the exposed skin, and it keeps licking and biting the area
Hair loss on the hind leg with red bumps and discharge is usually bacterial pyoderma, but constant licking and an unclear photo make diagnosis uncertain. A vet skin scraping is the safest next step, followed by antiseptic and antibiotic treatment if bacteria are confirmed.
Doctor, can you check my dog’s eye? And that piece of flesh on its body? Thanks.
Skin problems around the eye and on the back may be from mites with bacterial infection; get a skin scraping. Eye-area lesions limit ointments, so the vet may use weight-based injections. Usually deworm regularly and keep the environment clean.
What skin disease is this and what medicine is needed?
From the photo the dog likely has bacterial folliculitis. Do antibacterial and anti-inflammatory care and keep the area dry. Shave around it, clean with saline, apply antibacterial spray or ointment, and keep it dry. Keep a collar on during treatment to stop licking.
My dog’s skin bump did not improve with iodine and erythromycin
The skin issue may be mites or allergic rash; get a skin scrape. Improve the environment, use flea control for mites (ivermectin, selamectin), and antibacterial spray plus allergy ointment; see a vet if no improvement.
This state has lasted a long time; the doctor prescribed this spray but it kept getting worse. I’m heartbroken.
The dog's ear problem is likely bacterial otitis; the spray is a bacteriostatic one and made it worse, so stop using it. Keep the ear dry and clean daily, then get a smear test at the vet.
This has lasted half a year and will not go away: hair loss, redness, and inflammation on my dog’s elbow.
Long-lasting hair loss with red, inflamed skin on the elbow is often pyoderma from mites, fungi, or bacteria. A skin scraping at the clinic helps identify the cause.
Yellow bumps around the butt and thighs, with white dandruff. The vet said it’s from moisture; sprays and iodine daily haven’t helped.
The photo suggests fungal or parasite infection; moisture is a common trigger but a skin scrape is needed to confirm type. Fungal cases need antifungals; do not use random drugs that build resistance.
My Dog Has a Patch Like This in One Spot, Getting Worse, Urgent
Local hair loss may be fungal, bacterial, parasite, or allergic dermatitis. Use an Elizabethan collar, get a skin scrape at the vet, or try a Wood's lamp; green fluorescence means fungus, treat with terbinafine or ketoconazole plus antibiotic ointment. Keep it dewormed and the area dry.
