| Disease Symptoms / Clinical Signs |
If you notice a lesion on your dog’s skin, bring your dog in to a veterinarian for a thorough examination. Be prepared to provide a history, including your dog’s recent activity, places you may have visited, and any additional signs or behaviors that are out of the ordinary. |
| Disease Description |
A boil, or furuncle, is an infection of a hair follicle caused by the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). This common bacterium inhabits the skin, and approximately one third of the population carry the germ in their noses. S. aureus is usually harmless, but it can cause a range of mild to severe infections, if it gains access to deeper tissues. Certain areas of the body are more susceptible to boils, including the face, throat, armpits, groin and buttocks. A boil on the eyelid is known as a stye. A carbuncle is an aggregate of connected furuncles and has several pustular openings. Boils usually resolve by themselves, but severe or recurring cases require medical treatment. Options include lancing and draining the boil, and antibiotics. |
| Disease Control |
Treatment varies widely according to the cause of the skin ulcer. Most lesions can be successfully treated at home, though the veterinarian may recommend hospitalization, depending on the underlying condition. In all cases, the ulcerated skin must be kept clean and free of pressure. The wound should be kept moist, as this allows sufficient blood to reach the area and enhances the healing process. You may want to ask the veterinarian about hydroactive wound dressings, which mold to the sore and keep the area moist without additional intervention. |
| Disease Prevention |
Some interventions include: Pressure area care — relieve the pressure every 2–4 hours or more frequently if necessary (Campbell and Parish, 2010). Observe the skin for redness, heat or moisture, clip the hair if necessary. Use lots of padding on bony prominences and use soft, absorbant bedding. |

| Procedure of Use |
The animal suffering from boils has swellings on the skin. For the treatment of these boils, three kilogram bark of tree of heaven (Ailanthus excelsa) is crushed thoroughly and soaked in about one-liter of water for 12 hours. Filter the mixture. About 500 millilitre of this filtrate is taken and rubbed on the skin of the suffering animal. This cures the boils on the skin of the animal.
The filtrate is applied once a day for two to three days. The upper layer of the boils gets dried and new skin is formed. Thereafter the medicine is applied at the intervals of two to three days, then at an interval of one week and then after 10 to15 days. Slowly and gradually the whole body of a bullock gets cured.
There is no side-effect to this medicine. |
