Common Symptoms and Treatment Methods of Keratitis in Dogs
[Etiology] Keratitis in dogs is usually caused by trauma or foreign bodies, and can also occur in certain infectious and parasitic diseases. [Key Points of Diagnosis] The main symptoms of acute keratitis are photophobia, lacrimation, pain, blepharospasm, and conjunctival hyperemia. When caused by trauma, the corneal surface is rough and uneven, with corneal opacity; some cases are relatively mild, showing only a layer of translucent thin nebula, while others are thicker, appearing as an opaque white membrane, and the affected dog thereby becomes blind. Cases with a longer course of disease develop corneal peripheral hyperemia and neovascularization.

Encephalitis in Dogs
Encephalitis refers to inflammation of the meninges and brain parenchyma caused by infection or toxic factors. In a broad sense, encephalitis includes various brain infections and encephalopathies. [Etiology] Purulent encephalitis is mostly caused by pyogenic bacteria, head trauma, spread of nearby purulent foci, or hematogenous metastasis from systemic pyemia. It can also be caused by the migrating larvae of certain parasites entering brain tissue, resulting in parasitic encephalitis. Non-suppurative encephalitis is mostly seen secondary to infectious diseases, such as canine distemper and rabies. Bacterial

Generally, households should always keep drugs such as berberine and furazolidone on hand, but these

What Are the Treatment Methods for Chemical Pododermatitis in Dogs?
When a dog's toes come into contact with irritating or corrosive acids, alkalis, or other chemicals, it causes redness, swelling, heat, and pain in the toes, followed by inflammatory exudate; in severe cases, infection leads to ulcers and affects the dog's normal walking function. Case 1: The affected dog's appetite was basically normal, its mental state was fair, its hind limbs were weak when walking, and its right hind limb would often be lifted off the ground quickly after touching down, as if the sole had been punctured by a sharp object. Clinical examination: The toes of the right hind limb were obviously swollen, and palpation was painful. No signs of puncture by a foreign object were found on the soles, but the foot pads of all four limbs showed varying degrees of epidermal peeling.

The corneal epithelium swells and the surface becomes rough and uneven. When superficial damage occurs to the cornea, the surface epithelium detaches and shows marks, and transparency

Diagnosis and Treatment of Anal Sacculitis and Perianal Fistula in Dogs
Just like weasels (yellow weasels) and skunks, dogs also have a pair of anal sacs, which open on both sides of the anus. They are secretory glands that emit a foul odor, and their secretions are discharged along with feces during defecation. The perianal area is frequently contaminated by feces and dirt, making it prone to disease. Anal sacculitis is inflammation caused by obstruction of the anal sac duct for some reason, causing the glandular secretions within the anal sac to accumulate inside the sac and irritate the mucosa, after which the purulent lesion spreads to the perianal area. Hair follicles, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands are distributed around the anus, and these tissues can produce superficial and deep purulent lesions.
