(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
The owner took the animal to the local veterinarian where the attending veterinarian prescribed metronidazole, advised the owner to bathe the animal, and recommended the owner apply Surolan to the effected area twice a day. The APSS veterinarian stated that use of the product, per label, is not expected to lead to signs. The APSS veterinarian recommended the owner bathe the animal again in liquid dish washing detergent, apply vitamin E to the area, monitor the animal for continued or worsening dermatological signs and take the animal to the local veterinary clinic for further treatment if needed. The owner stated that on July 26, 2008, she took her animal back to the local veterinary clinic where the attending veterinarian prescribed Cephalexin, advised the owner to discontinue the metronidazole, provided wound care with an antibacterial shampoo, and expressed the animal's anal glands. The owner stated that on July 28, 2008, after three doses of the Cephalexin, there was no evidence of pustules on the animal's skin. The animal is still suffering from erythema; however, the sign has not increased in severity.
