Thanks for the advice. I will see if we can find Vetericyn here. We don't have any problems with scratching but have been noticing that our boy Hero is shedding a lot lately but our other boy Saber is not so still in two minds on if we should change the dog food. :unsure:

You can find Vetericyn at Walmart...you might have to order it. We just add it to our periodic Chewy.com order. I would shop around as the price varies with all retailers that carry the stuff.

Well I would try to isolate the allergen if it is allergies. Many of here at EBN have had few experiences when it comes to bullies. We hope that Jeffrey gets over his quickly.

Thanks for the info. The Acana bags we order has always been the 13kg Grasslands and Pacifica bags but the prices have gone up and are now around $130 per bag where i am (shanghai) :fie:

Wow, I wouldn't like those prices! You can get the Vetericyn on Amazon but have no idea what Amazon China is like!

Hi All,

Thanks for all the advice and comments. It has now been 1week since we started to treat the Interdigital Cyst for Hero using the Epsom bath salt and Dakatrin Cream. He is not 100% better but hopefully we are nearly there. Here are some pics to see the improvement from Day 1 of the treatment.

Day One:

Do you mean Dactarin? That is the same as miconazole, which is an anti fungal,like monistat cream. Dactarin?may be prescription.... [MENTION=701]Maximus[/MENTION]

I agree, probably miconazole cream. You can use any antifungal, eg. clotrimazole (Canesten ), terbinafine ( Lamisil ) cream or even an antifungal shampoo or spray.

[MENTION=12725]Dolly[/MENTION]sOwner Interdigital cysts are not a fungus-correct? How would an anti-fungal help? Wouldn't you need something more like a "drawing agent?" Epsom, or black salve(yuk)
Even Vetericyn,NuStock(best for everything!)
