Dog with abdominal pain and seizures

Dog abdominal pain and seizures may be due to the following reasons:

Inadequate regular deworming: Excessive internal parasites can cause abdominal seizures.
Digestive tract diseases: such as pancreatitis, enteritis, and renal failure, can cause vomiting, increased intestinal peristalsis, and abdominal muscle spasms.
Canine distemper can cause local or generalized seizures when neurological symptoms appear.
Indigestion can also cause abdominal spasms. It is recommended to bring the dog to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

What are the manifestations of a dog with abdominal pain and seizures? When a dog is experiencing abdominal pain, it usually assumes a praying position with its front legs down and hind legs standing. During abdominal spasms, the dog will show symptoms of pacing back and forth, restlessness, and licking its abdomen. Abdominal pain can also make the dog dislike activities, leading to being misunderstood as sleeping. However, the dog's eyes usually appear vacant, unlike the bright eyes when it is healthy.

What to do if a dog has abdominal pain and seizures? Bring the dog to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible. If immediate medical attention is not feasible, try to infer the cause based on the dog's usual condition. The possible causes of abdominal pain and seizures in dogs include:

Regular deworming: Check if the dog has a regular deworming schedule. Excessive internal parasites can cause abdominal seizures. Choose the appropriate deworming medicine based on the dog's weight.
Digestive tract diseases: Pancreatitis, enteritis, renal failure, etc., can cause vomiting, increased intestinal peristalsis, and abdominal muscle spasms. Treat symptomatically and provide supportive therapy.
Canine distemper: When neurological symptoms appear, it can cause local or generalized seizures. Treat symptomatically and provide supportive therapy, along with antiviral serum, monoclonal antibodies, and interferon therapy.
Indigestion: If caused by indigestion, use probiotics or other drugs to adjust the dog's gastrointestinal function.
