Some fungus or yeast can be seen if you shine a black light on the suspected area. If it has a greenish glow it is probably fungal (yeast). For this condition, I suggest topically tea tree oil, Avoiding unnecessary anti-biotics is the best way to prevent yeast overgrowth. The equivalent of psoriasis in animals have the same source as in people... the liver. A blood cleanser such as Red Clover Blend and Liver cleanse. For dry skin, Nothing can beat Flaxseed oil. Sometimes after a skin condition is remedied, the animal out of habit will chew or lick at the area where the hot spot use to be. If it is a nervous dog, Chinese Stress Relief and flaxseed oil are recommended. If nerves are not involved, I suggest putting on an ample amount of capsicum. The hot taste will dieter your pets chewing. |
