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.
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.
I found skin issues on my dog while bathing—what’s the cause?
When unsure of the skin type, get a scraping at a vet to identify fungus/bacteria/parasite/allergy/mixed, then treat per guidance. If no vet access, shave fur around the area, clean/disinfect with saline and iodine, let dry, spray pet skin spray, add oral anti-inflammatory/anti-itch, use Elizabethan collar. If no relief in 5–7 days, get further checks; regular external deworming.
My dog’s skin around the mouth is pink, fur is thin, for a while, no scratching; is it a skin disease?
Thin fur and red skin around the mouth may be from unclean diet or secondary pathogen infection. Food and water residue left damp breeds bacteria, mites, and fungus causing redness and allergy. Check for dandruff or ringworm and do a cytology; clean after meals, deworm, and use antibiotics or antifungals. If a vet visit is hard, use a broad-spectrum oral spray and low-allergen food, keep the area dry, and use a collar.
My cat’s skin suddenly turned pink and a bit pus-filled; I noticed it at night and it kept licking, so I sprayed iodine — is it from being hit or a skin disease?
This is likely skin-disease inflammation from fungal or bacterial infection or wound infection, causing redness, pus, and over-licking. If possible, get a skin cytology at the vet for targeted medicine. If not, use an Elizabethan collar, then disinfect with iodine and apply pet anti-inflammatory, and see a vet if no improvement in a few days.
Today I found red dots on my dog’s belly and near its privates, and a red patch in the groin—could it be eczema or another skin disease, and what medicine should I apply?
Red dots on a dog's belly are often superficial pyoderma or eczema from bacterial infection, usually from a damp environment or lying on wet bedding/floor. Clean the belly with saline, disinfect with diluted peroxide or iodine, then apply an antibacterial ointment such as a pet spray with zinc oxide, twice daily; oral antibiotics or weekly medicated baths help. Use a collar to stop licking and disinfect the environment to keep it dry.
My dog has some scars on its skin, what caused this?
From the picture, hair loss, crusting, and red rashes are usually skin disease: fungal or bacterial infection, parasites, allergic dermatitis, or eczema. Get a skin exam and treat accordingly; keep the coat dry and use a collar if needed.
My dog has a few scabs self-inflicted scratches or skin disease?
Based on the signs, hair loss, scabs, and redness are usually from skin disease, often triggered by itching and over-scratching from bacteria, fungus, allergy, or eczema. A skin exam at the clinic is best; if unavailable, use pet skin sprays and an antihistamine with a collar.
Why does my dog have a lump on its leg skin?
A red, swollen lump on a dog's leg is often inflamed skin tissue from injury or infection, such as scratches, parasite bites, or bacterial or fungal infection. Secondary infection can follow, so a skin scraping at the clinic is best; meanwhile use an Elizabethan collar and disinfect.
