You're so cruel

The best solution is to see a veterinarian!

Hey, poor puppy, it's distressing!!

The dog may have a fracture and a red bump that seems to be a ** disease, and it is best to go to the pet hospital to see.

1. Injuries to the soles of the feet and legs.

When the dog is scratched by a foreign object, there are wounds and thorns on the soles of the feet, etc., the owner should first check whether the dog's soles are injured, clean up the foreign objects and disinfect them in time.

The dog suffers from interdigital inflammation, and there may be redness and swollen pus in the soles of the feet.

If there is nothing wrong with the ball of the foot, see if the leg is swollen, whether the joint activity is normal, see if the dog has been injured or injured with other animals, if it is not serious, use a little anti-inflammatory spray, and if it is serious (such as fractures, bone cracks), take it to the hospital in time for filming**.

2. Long-term calcium deficiency.

Dogs have a single diet for a long time and insufficient nutrients, resulting in calcium deficiency in dogs. The dog should be given some calcium-supplementing nutrients in time, and often take the dog to bask in the sun to promote the absorption of calcium, and see if the dog will gradually recover.

3. Arthritis.

Common joint problems in dogs include hip dysplasia, bone damage, arthritis, etc., which are more common in some medium and large dogs, such as golden retrievers, huskies, etc., and some small dogs with long spines, such as dachshunds, will cause lame legs due to herniated discs or spinal injuries that cause nerve damage to the spinal spine.

4. The dog is overworked.

Some owners take the dog out to play, will take the dog to run all the time, veterinarian Xiao Ming has also seen riding a bicycle to walk the dog, the dog excessive exercise will also lead to lameness, although walking the dog can increase the amount of exercise of the dog, but also to control the time and intensity, the dog is tired and do not let them move more, timely replenish their energy, let them have a good rest.

Generally speaking, after the owner finds that the dog is lame, do not move the dog's legs casually, observe whether the dog can walk, if the dog is just a little lame, and can walk, you can observe for a day or two to see if it has improved. If the situation is serious and the dog can't move, veterinarian Xiao Ming still recommends that you take the dog to the hospital in time

Dear, can you check if the dog's left leg is injured?

I didn't hurt to ask a question, it's been like this for a long time.

Dear, there are no injuries, are there any parasites around the left leg?

Do you deworm your dogs regularly?

I didn't ask any questions, they were all regularly dewormed, but I am a large dog, it is Bernese, that is, it has always liked to sleep on the ground, not in cages.

Dear, if there are no traces of parasites and injuries, it is recommended that you take a film, and you will clearly see what the cause is.

Sleeping on a dog will not cause lameness.

Question: Can I see it if I have a rheumatoid film?

Dear, you can also see it in the later stages of rheumatism.

Question: If it is a calcium deficiency, can you know if you take a film?

Bone density can be seen on X-ray, which can roughly tell whether there is calcium deficiency, but the blood test for calcium deficiency is more accurate.

Question, oh yes, I'd like to ask you about what I'm talking about, can you roughly assess that kind of situation is more likely.

According to your description, the dog is more likely to suffer from rheumatism, external injuries and parasitic infections should be ruled out, and the last less likely is previous bone injuries and calcium deficiency.

Dear, do you have any questions?

Thank you for answering the question, and finally please ask me to take it to the hospital to make sure, right, dear, yes, you are too polite, for the dog. You can go to the pet hospital for a check-up. If you need to click on my avatar in the future. We're here to answer your questions.
