Generally speaking, itching and scratching, local depilation, cortical thickening and dandruff are common. In this case, mold, ear scabies or scabies may be infected. Because the affected area is easy to spread, it is best to go to the hospital for examination. It is best to raise two or more rabbits separately.
In addition, because rabbits are mostly fed in cages, coupled with less exercise and overweight, their soles can't stand stepping on hard cages for a long time, which is prone to so-called ankle sores. At this time, you can see that the rich and soft body hair on the soles of your feet becomes thinner and the cortex becomes thicker like a thick scab. There will be pain at the pressing place, and sometimes thick blisters will appear. Therefore, it is best to provide a soft bed in the cage when feeding, and reduce the pressure on the soles of the feet with dense net cages to prevent this from happening.
Also, if you accidentally hurt the rabbit, you should pay more attention to it for a few days even if the surface wound heals. Because immune children are easy to be infected with bacteria and easily form pustules, their thick secretions are cheese-like, lurking in the bottom of the skin, not easy to be found, ignoring the existence of lesions.
Prevention of dermatosis
The rabbit house should be kept clean, sanitary, ventilated and dry, and the feed should be checked frequently. Feed can't be piled directly on the ground to avoid mildew and deterioration. If mildew is found, stop feeding rabbits immediately. The litter box should be dry. Moldy litter is prohibited.
If individual rabbits are found to have this disease, the rabbits in the whole rabbit house should be examined one by one. Sick rabbits should be isolated immediately and treated in time.
The rabbit cages and utensils contacted by sick rabbits should be thoroughly disinfected, and the cleanliness, hygiene and disinfection of rabbit houses are the key to eliminate diseases.
Wild rats are the source of infection of this disease, so it is necessary to do a good job of rodent control.
Mould treatment
If it is a local infection, you can shave and use miconazole ointment or clotrimazole ointment. If the amplitude is too large or multiple parts, griseofulvin 25 mg/kg 924h can be taken orally for 2 weeks. These drugs, like cats and dogs, should be available in general animal hospitals.
Fungal therapy
For local treatment, the hair of the affected part should be cut off first, and then washed with soapy water or 3% Sur. Then you can choose the following methods:
1. Apply compound miconazole ointment (produced by Shanghai Ninth Pharmaceutical Factory) to the affected area, 2 ~ 3 times a day.
2. Baolongkang Ointment (produced by Shanghai Baolong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) twice a day.
? 3. povidone iodine lotion? Twice a day.
