Bumps in ears

[Suebeeehoney]

Hello everybody! I am a new bully owner.. My baby is now 11 weeks old. She is currently eating Fromm puppy food and blue buffalo salmon treats. Recently see had a minor ear infection so the vet put her on some drops. She also told me to clean her ears a but more regular while they are healing. Although they are now cleaner and the infection seems to have cleared, my baby now has small pink bumps inside of her ears. They are almost like pimples but without the white center. She paws at her ears occasionally and enjoys having them rubbed (hates having them cleaned or having he drops out in), but otherwise seems fine. I am cleaning them about 3 days apart and I use either a baby wipe, a malcetic wipe, or ear cleaner if I really need to get in there. Any ideas?

Hello and to EBN.... are the baby wipes unscented?

Yup, the baby wipes are unscented

Sounds like a bacterial infection on the ears, pretty common in pups that age. Clean them once a day with a good ear cleaner or the malacetic wipes, maybe even two times a day, and if they get worse you probably want to visit a vet who can prescribe some panalog ointment or similar. Those little bumps are itchy so she's probably enjoying the cleanings. Stay away from using baby wipes unless you put ear cleaner or witch hazel on them first.

Thanks for the help! Another quick question... Do you think the ear cream the vet gave her is making things worse? It's maletic. Also, I just put her on doggie gnc probiotics. Could it be an allergy to either of those things? Thank you again for your help!!

I think what [MENTION=2]bullmama[/MENTION] stated is great info and you should be OK with what you are doing... if her ears are still getting worse - might be a good idea to stop the GNC till you get them cleared up
