Spring is coming soon, and because of the humid weather, many dogs will develop yeast dermatitis.Actually, yeast dermatitis is not that difficult to handle. American veterinarian Dr. Mark: "Unless there is a very deep wound, dogs don't need to see a vet."
Dr. Mark - Two ways for owners to solve yeast dermatitis at home
1. Yeast can spread throughout the body, so you can't just treat it locally:
First, use a shower gel containing Benzoyl Peroxide (antifungal) to massage your entire body, then leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing.
Then, spray a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water all over your skin and let it dry on its own.
Apply coconut oil to the infected areas, especially paying attention to the toes, the bottom of the paws, and the inside of the ears.
2. Don't eat foods that promote yeast growth:
Dog food containing grains, carbohydrates, or corn can worsen yeast problems.Dogs should eat raw meat diets.
Dr. Mark - Preventing Yeast Reoccurrence
Most veterinarians will tell you that yeast infections are a lifelong issue, requiring medicated baths and other treatments for the dog's remaining life.
Dr. Mark: "Actually, it's only a lifelong problem if the infected area is not properly cared for, and if the dog continues to eat food that promotes yeast growth."Only by changing the dog's diet and occasionally using coconut oil to control the yeast can yeast infections be avoided.
