Specialized Dog (definite introduction)
Because the dog's body is covered with hair, sometimes We may not be able to detect immediately what problems occur on the dog, just like there may be a bump on the dog, but we may not be able to see it because it is covered by the coat. For some dogs with thicker manes, it is difficult to detect if there is a problem on the neck. So what to do if the dog's neck is swollen and how to deal with it.
Since the dog’s neck is swollen, you should carefully check whether the dog’s neck is swollen by itself or caused by trauma. As a parent, you must first determine whether the cause of the dog's neck is internal or external. It should be noted whether the pet dog was scratched on the neck while playing with other dogs or was bitten on the neck and caused swelling. Of course, if you encounter this situation, you have to send the dog to the pet hospital for examination, and give the dog anti-inflammatory drugs to prevent the wound feeling from reversing.
In addition, the swollen neck of the dog may be a lymphatic problem. You may try to gently touch the dog's neck with your hands to check whether it is a single or multiple small lumps that are granular and hard in quality. If so, it may be lymphadenitis.
Occasionally, the reason why a dog’s neck swells may be because of skin disease in this area. Because dogs are itchy, they often scratch their necks. The skin may be scratched and then feel it. It will swell. For this situation, it is best to remove the surrounding fur, then clean it with hydrogen peroxide, etc., and then apply medicine for bandage. It is best to wear the dog for treatment and change the dressing every day.
