What should you do if your dog has interdigital inflammation?
For dog interdigital inflammation, you need to shave all the hair between the toes, then rinse the affected area with saline, clean up all the surrounding dust and hair, then apply antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs, and finally put an Elizabethan ring on the dog. Prevent the dog from licking the medicine on the affected area.

It is necessary to keep the wound dry and avoid contact with soil, bacteria and other substances. Pay special attention to disinfection and do not leave the dog in the cage all the time. Because the toes are buckled in the gaps of the cage, the environment between the toes is even worse and it is easy to cause the dog again. The disease relapses and becomes even more severe.
