Dog skin has small hard lumps

First, whether there has been recent vaccination or injection of other drugs. If the drugs are not absorbed in time, small bubbles may occur. This can be treated by applying warm towels. Second, check for skin diseases. Surface skin diseases can also form lumps or hard knots due to the impact on the underlying dermis. If you have a skin disease, visit a doctor for examination and targeted medication. Third, whether the skin has been injured. If there are deeper wounds, there may be hypertrophy or scabbing during the healing process.

Hard lumps in Teddy's skin

These may be caused by cysts, tissue hypertrophy, or external trauma, and can also occur after mosquito or insect bites. However, for mosquito bites, usually only disinfecting the bite site is necessary, and the swelling will disappear within 3-5 days. If there is no sign of disappearance and the lump continues to grow, and affects Teddy's daily life, it is necessary to take the dog to the pet hospital for examination and treatment.

How to treat dog skin diseases

Disinfect with salt water: Use physiological saline or DIY salt water. Cut the hair around the affected area, and then rinse with salt water.
For severe skin diseases, external medications alone cannot achieve the desired effect. Give the dog Amoxicillin orally. Dosage: 12-22mg/kg body weight, 2-3 times a day.
Finally, choose some vitamin B2 tablets for concurrent treatment, as vitamins are beneficial to the dog's fur regrowth.
