真菌性皮膚病
潮濕天氣容易滋生細菌和真菌,真菌性皮膚病亦是貓狗常見的皮膚問題之一。
一般免疫力較差,皮膚抵抗力較弱的動物,較容易被真菌寄生。因此多數常見於年老或幼小的動物身上。
徵狀包括皮膚發炎紅腫,痕癢,脫毛,皮屑,不停搔癢等等。醫生會視乎皮膚嚴重程度,選擇使用口服藥物或外用藥膏作為治療手段。
Malassezia dermatitis is caused by an overgrowth of yeast that causes inflammation on the skin. Your pet may experience itchiness, crusty or smelly skin if infected. Hot and humid weather provides the ideal environment for yeast to grow and multiply, however, allergies such as food sensitivity may also be a factor that leads to malassezia.
If you see lesions on your dog or cat that look concerning, it is best to consult your local vets to get the best treatment possible.
