Go Back to Bulldog Medical Health

Hi all..been a while, my Tito is now a big bully, 4 years! He got a bump on one toe...i don't know if you can help me but I'll show a picture. I just hope it's not a tumor.

Also, Sheena always have bumps like acne on her chin..she's 3 years old. I heard it's good to clean daily with some listerine? I try to clean it and put some zincofax on it to keep it clean for now.

I'll wait for some advices! Thank you in advance.

Glad to be back here!

Looks like an interdigital cyst. Is it draining?

IDC

Do a search for IDC or Interdigital cyst. There are many home remedies including bleach soaks (1 cup bleach to 2 gal. water), epsom salts soaks, kosher salt soaks, vaginal douche soaks. Topicals include Preparation H, Chlora care and Nolvasan scrub. Immunity builders include Astragulas. Most people have had success with one of these suggestions. I've tried them all, plus 5 different antibiotic regimens and prescription topicals: animax, fluocinonide and mupirocin and 3 surgeries on one large persistant cyst that we've have not been able to get rid of for over 2 years. I also tried grain free and raw feeding. If anyone has any other ideas, I'd love to hear about them. I hope you have success with one of the home remedies. Good luck!

thanks!

well it bleeds a bit but after walking or if he stands outside for long...not much bleeding but i can see a bit of it. I try to keep it clean and i put some bag palm on it since 2 weeks..it looks better and seemed to be smaller now.

We go see the vet on monday to make sure.

Thank you!

Soak it in Epsom Salts

and water for 5 minutes twice a day for a week or so. I also put a little Betadine in the water. You need to draw out whats draining and dry it up. I've had good luck with this method.

thank you
