Black deposits in cat's nostrils daily

Black deposits in a cat's nostrils daily may be caused by nasal secretions, folliculitis, ringworm, black spots, and other reasons. First of all, if the black deposits are caused by nasal secretions, it is a normal physiological phenomenon and there is generally no need to worry too much. Secondly, if there are abnormal black deposits daily accompanied by other symptoms, such as hair loss around the nose, hyperpigmentation, itching skin, etc., it is recommended that the owner take the cat to a regular veterinary hospital for treatment in time.

1. Nasal secretions

If a cat often runs around and jumps around, it can cause the nose to be wet, easily sticking to dust in the air and on the floor. If not cleaned in time, it may form black secretions. It is necessary to clean the secretions with professional tools, and there is generally no need for drug treatment.

1. Folliculitis

This is an inflammatory skin disease usually caused by bacterial infection, which can cause red papules, itching and swelling, and even abscesses. It usually occurs on the head, face, and nose. If not treated in time, it can lead to local abscesses, causing black deposits and severe pain. Antibiotic ointments can be used under a doctor's guidance to improve the condition.

1. Ringworm

This is a skin disease caused by a fungus. It causes gray scales and rough hair, and can even cause hair loss. As the disease progresses, circular or oval red or black patches may appear on the skin. Treatment usually involves taking anti-fungal medications as prescribed by a doctor.

1. Black spots

With the increasing age, local melanin deposition can occur, causing black spots on the nose. This can cause local skin breakdown and daily formation of black deposits. Iodine solution can be used to clean the area to prevent bacterial proliferation. It is recommended that the owner take the cat to a regular pet hospital for examination and further treatment as the black spots grow gradually.
