It's important to consult a veterinarian before using any ear flush on your dog, especially if you notice redness and itching, as these could be signs of an underlying issue that needs professional assessment.
- Redness in the ears
- Frequent scratching or rubbing of ears
- Potential underlying infection or allergy
- The presence of an unknown or worsening condition
Redness and itching in your dog's ears could indicate several conditions, including infections (bacterial or yeast), allergies, or ear mites. Using a product without a proper diagnosis might worsen the condition or delay appropriate treatment. While Mal-A-Ket Plus TRIZEDTA Flush is an antiseptic cleanser often used for ear conditions, it’s vital to confirm with a vet that it’s suitable for your specific situation. They can provide guidance on whether this product is appropriate or if alternative treatments are needed.
To ensure your pet receives the correct treatment, book a vet consultation with one of our professional veterinarians at Dial A Vet today.
