ALLERGY (ITCHING) TREATMENT FOR DOGS, CATS AND GUINEA PIGS.
Allergy is a difficult and unpleasant disorder for your dof or cat, especially when it goes together with itching or a skin disorder. Itching is somtimes perceived to be worse than pain. All the scratching can lead to "disturbed" behaviour of the sufferer.
Allergies occur when the immune system responds abnormally to substances outside the body. The immune system should clean up germs which do not belong in the body . With an allergy the body over-reacts to for example nutrients or pollen.Such a reaction should not occur and results in complaints. Itching eczema being one of them. The simplest solution is avoiding contact with whatever caused the reaction. But ususally it is not as simple as that, because the cause cannot be found, or it is impossible to avoid it because it's part of everyday life.
With this type of disease, regular medicine usually prescribe antibiotics, more often than not combined with corticosteroids (prednisone) The disorder itself will usually not be cured. Often there is a soothing reaction: the itching is repressed. But that is only a treatment of symptoms. In such cases the itching wil return when the course of treatment has ended, often more severe than before.
Chinese herbal medicine deals with the cause of the allergy. The cause is a disorder of the immune system and that needs to put back into balance. The body should learn that the environmental triggers are not a threat and should be ignored. This means that the sensitivity to allergies will subside. The Chinese herbal formula Xie Tang can accomplish this. A huge advantage of Xie Tang is the absence of adverse side effects. Regular medications always have side effects. Repetitive use of antibiotics/prednisone for instance can degrade the immune system, also in cases were an immune response would be desirable.
If in the past the animal has been on antibiotics and/or prednisone a number of times, it would be advisable to combine the Xie Tang Formule simultaneously with a detox treatment. This will clear the organs of the remainder of antibiotics and prednisone, which will stimulate the recovery.
Detoxifying treatment and Xie Tang Formula go perfectly together and this combination has successfully released many pets from eczema and itching, long term and often permanently.
What signs to watch for when you suspect a skin allergy (itching) for your dog and cat
- Inflammatory reactions of the skin (especially on the head, around the eyes, ears and mouth, scratching worsens the condition)
- Inflamed spots on/under feet, by biting and licking the animal will try to get rid of the itching causing the toes to go bold.
- General inflammation of the skin, with a dark discolouration and thickening of the skin, in the armpits, loins and neck area.
- Bald spots as a result of excessive licking
- Dry eczema (pink, dry skin with crusts and possible itching)
- Wet eczema (pink skin, covered in little vesicles, usually extreme itching)
- Nettle rash (pink to red skin, clearly defined raised spots, usually extreme itching)
- In dogs: irritation of the skin around the eyes, around the mouth and the bottom half of the legs. The dog starts biting its feet (toes). In some cases the dog has a general skin inflammation. This is recognizable from the dark discolouration and thickening of the skin in the armpits, loins and neck area.
- In cats often the whole skin is affected, sometimes it is limited to the head area. It is not always visible to the owner that the cat is itching. When there are bald spots and the skin is not visibly affected in these spots, one has to look for indirect signs of itching and excessive licking: vomitig up of hairballs, hair in faeces, hair between the teeth, wisps of hair in the basket.
- Behavioural changes due to itching. Your animal's behaviour can change because of extreme itching. Extreme itching is probably one of the worst things that can happen to your pet. People that itch all the time are also driven to distraction at some point.
- The itching can be seasonal
- Itching is not always clearly visible to the owner. Sometimes there are bald spots, but the skin is not affected. The bald spots are caused by excessive licking. You can watch for: vomiting up of hairballs, hair in the faeces of your pet, hair between the teeth or wisps of hair in the basket.
