WHAT THIS PRODUCT CURESThis medication must be prescribed by a veterinarian to treat ear infections in dogs.
PET SYMPTOMS
The physical structure of the dog’s ear poses a problem when it comes to acquiring an infection. Unlike humans where our ear canals are straight, dogs have an “L” shaped ear canal. At the bottom of the “L” the ear drum sits right in front of the middle portion of the ear. When foreign particles enter into the ear, they become trapped at the bottom of this “L” shape, right in front of viable hearing organs. Infections in the ear are usually the first stage of an ear inflammation; this problem is called otitis external or otitis media if affecting the middle ear. Infections that are left unnoticed and untreated can cause the eardrum to rupture or cause the problem of otitis externa.
Symptoms
of an ear infection include; shaking of the head, redness of the ear
tissues, pawing or scratching of the ears, head tilt, slight
deafness, pain when eating, pain when yawning, and pain whilst the
jaws are being handled. The underlying cause of an ear infection
can be from a variety of things such as; autoimmune disease,
keratinisation, hair accumulation, foreign materials, adverse
reactions to drugs, allergies to foods, and parasites.
A number of other less common underlying conditions include;
fungal or bacterial infections, swimming, and improper ear cleaning
done by unknowledgeable personnel.
