QuestionHi - my 13 yr old Shih Tzu is licking her vagina, it is red, swollen, is there something natural I can put on it or bathe to make it feel better for her.
She had an eye infection 2 wks ago, was on antibiotic eye drops, a month ago was on antibiotic for infected sore on foot, am worried re her immune system, can I give her pro biotic?
AnswerYes, I bet she has a yeast infection now. YOU can give the Vet a call and see what they say. Often I would treat my own pets with a little monsostat Cream daily on the area in question - The product you need comes in 7 days / 7 tubes.. good to have on hand .. YOU may only use one tube . Just apply a little ever evening. If she won't stop licking you may need to put a collar on her ; Here is a link to the product I was mentioning 7 Day Treatment Cream
