What's the cause of red bumps on a dog's body?

Red bumps on a dog's body may be caused by various reasons such as eczema, papular urticaria, parasite infection, bacterial infection, and fungal infection. After the dog becomes ill, it is necessary to pay attention to the local skin hygiene, frequently bathe the dog, and during the medication period, clear the local hair to facilitate drug penetration into the skin and reduce the damage to the skin after the illness. If the condition is severe, it is recommended that the owner take the dog to a regular hospital in time, otherwise, it may delay the treatment and affect the disease control.

Eczema

Usually caused by contact with allergens or eating allergens, it can lead to local skin damage, redness, itching, and swelling. It may also cause red bumps on the skin, and treatment usually involves taking anti-histamine medications as prescribed.

Papular Urticaria

An allergic skin disease, it may be caused by insect bites on exposed skin areas, leading to local inflammation, red bumps, and itching. Treatment usually involves using anti-histamine creams under a doctor's guidance.

Parasite Infection

Mainly caused by external skin parasites such as lice and fleas, which can cause skin bites, leading to skin and follicle damage, red bumps, and itching. Treatment usually involves using external parasite control medications as prescribed.

Bacterial Infection

Dogs often roll on the ground and run around in grassy areas, which can cause their skin to be contaminated with dust and bacteria, leading to skin damage. Severe cases may cause follicle atrophy and hair loss, accompanied by bumps. Treatment usually involves taking pet-specific antibiotic medications as prescribed.

Fungal Infection

If the skin is infected with fungi, it can cause damage to the skin all over the body, resulting in red bumps and burning sensation. Treatment usually involves taking anti-fungal medications as prescribed.

During treatment, pay attention to local skin hygiene and do not let the dog run around in grassy areas, as this can easily exacerbate the disease and prolong the recovery time.
