Dogs like to bite around because of their nature, but if the dog likes to bite some parts of his body, then we must pay attention and check the dog's body Is there any problem.
I believe many people have seen dogs biting their legs, but why do dogs always bite their legs? Let's analyze the reasons.
Cause:
It may be caused by various substances such as mites, mold, dust, chemicals, etc. Due to the complex reasons, it is difficult to determine which substance is allergic to. This is also characteristic of allergic dermatitis.
Symptoms:
Intense itching, frequent scratching, and occasionally biting of the affected area. Depilation of areas of repeated scratching, scratches on the skin, or darkening and thickening of the skin. The sick dog keeps licking the fur, causing the fur to change color. Atopic dermatitis often transforms into chronic dermatitis, which in most cases recurs even if it appears to have improved.
Prevention and Treatment:
Identifying allergens and eradicating as much as possible is the cure. But it is difficult to identify a specific allergen, and it is even more unrealistic to eliminate all allergens. Therefore, drug remission therapy is generally used. The medicines used include antihistamines to relieve itching, steroids to suppress inflammation, antiallergic medicines, etc. There are internal and external medicines, which are used according to the affected area and symptoms.
If you find that your dog likes to chew on his own legs, and it is accompanied by hair loss, it is most likely caused by disease. Therefore, we should take the dog to the hospital as soon as possible for examination and early treatment.
