Red Ear??

[Lauren31287]

I hope everyone is doing well! I have a quick question for all of you bully experts! Yesterday I noticed the inside of one of Winston's ears is really red. He doesn't seem to be in any kind of pain because he lets me touch it and clean it with no issue and he is not scratching at it. Any ideas?? Thanks!

Does it smell? Could be yeast. Someone with experience will be along soon!

Sometimes sumo's ear gets red. I think she scratches it and then it gets irritated and then she scratches more. My vet gave me this solution that i put in her ears once and whenever it gets a bit red, i put a little in and seems to fix it! I'd ask you're vet for something similar. Its the best

Infection
Yeast
Allergies

Im no expert but those would be my guesses. What to do about it I don't know... Sorry Im not more help

I would clean it well, I use witch hazel on a cotton pad, and watch it closely. Does it feel warm to the touch or smell? If not, I'd just clean every day and watch!

I would do like [MENTION=2092]JAKEISGREAT[/MENTION] suggested, just clean it and watch it.

The redness in his ear is starting to go away. So I started thinking what I changed and he had gotten a box of milk bones for christmas so I was giving them to him this week and last week for his treats and I stopped yesterday when I saw the redness, maybe hes allergic??

 

[Lauren31287]

It does not smell and is not any warmer then his other ear. I just cleaned it again so I will keep an eye on it and if it gets any worse I will call the vet. Thanks everyone! : )

Keep it clean like the others have said and watch for any signs of pain or discomfort.

We have been cleaning it everyday and it seems to be getting better it is still a little bit pinker then his other ear but nothing like it was a few days ago! but while i was playing with him the other day i noticed when he went to scratch his collar (because he still hates it lol) he kept hitting his ear. silly winston probably scratched himself! i am just glad its getting better, thank you for all of your help! :D
