Today Castor had his post-surgery (nares and soft palate) checkup. Everything looks fine, and difference in breathing is amazing.
When we first took him for an evaluation of his breathing problems, they suggested he might also have a allergy problem as he was scratching himself raw, but as that stopped right after his surgery, we think that scratching was stress-related from not being able to breathe properly.
However, the dermatologist we met today swabbed Castor's wrinkles, toes, and ears, and it turns out he has quite a yeast/fungus infection going on in his face wrinkles and between his toes. Castor does lick his paws although not excessively. We have previously used douxo now and then for the face wrinkles and the vet suggested we now use that plus apply a cream containing miconazole and hydrocortisone called Daktacort. Just want to check whether any bulldogs here have experience of that cream?
