everyone should be familiar with the word "stye". the scientific name of this disease is actually "meibomiditis". I believe many people have grown it. on the edge of the eyelid, a small bag will grow bigger and bigger with the development of the disease. finally, it is similar to the size of a wheat grain, which is a kind of eye disease. but do you know that dogs will also grow "stye?
my pork belly is a white bomei treasure. from the day he arrived at my house, I have paid great attention to his various treatments, washing eyes and feet every day, ears every three days, and bathing every 10 days in summer and winter. But even so, it is still difficult to escape bacterial invasion...
Eye problems diagnosed with twists and turns
The cause of the incident was that when he was about five months old, suddenly one day I found a small bag in the lower eyelid of his left eye, but he didn't seem to feel anything or show signs of scratching with his paws.
1 self-check online at home
In order to find out what the small bag with the eyes of my dog is, we are now looking up the data on the internet and get the conclusion like "cherry eye"-the third eyelid gland protrudes.
2 Nearby hospital examination
Scared by the online query results, I went to the nearest chain pet hospital. In order to get authoritative diagnosis and treatment, I specially found the director of that hospital to show it. After some examination, the director came to the conclusion that it was not "cherry eye". I just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but the director told me that it was a glandular tumor! Conservative treatment (eye drops, eye ointment) has no possibility of cure, only relief; so if you want to be cured, you can only operate, but there is still a 50% chance of recurrence after surgery......
WHAT ?! Are you kidding me? I was devastated when I heard the diagnosis! Regardless of the risk of surgery, I can't accept the 50% chance of recurrence alone... I was helpless holding pork belly and was at a loss in tears in the hospital. At the critical moment, men are more rational. The baba of pork belly reminds me whether to change to another hospital to have a look. If it is still diagnosed as glandular tumor, it can only be operated on. I told the dean that I needed to go home and consider whether to operate before making a decision, so he prescribed me a Pfizer anti-inflammatory eye ointment and asked me to go home first for the pork belly. The cost of this eye ointment is 60, plus the outpatient registration fee of 10 yuan and the examination fee of 30 yuan. I remember that it cost 100 yuan altogether.
3 waiting for ophthalmologist confirmed
After returning home, I checked the Internet and decided to take the pork belly to the Barbie Hall Animal Hospital, the most authoritative pet ophthalmology hospital in Beijing. However, the ophthalmologist does not sit every day, so I had to wait patiently for the ophthalmologist to visit. After waiting for 4 days, I cleaned my eyes with Willon's eyewash and Perry's special wet wipes every day, and then applied the eye ointment prescribed by the doctor. However, the small bag showed no sign of shrinking or improving, but it became a little bigger. To put it bluntly, the ointment was useless!
Experts diagnosed long hordeum!
After 4 long days of waiting, I finally took the pork belly to see an eye specialist, and guess what?! I really don't say I don't know, I was shocked! It's not a tumor at all, it's just a meibomian gland eye, commonly known as a stye ...... It's because baby's eyes are infected with bacteria.
Treatment plan
The doctor worked out a treatment plan-NPD eye drops and Parker eye ointment were alternately used 4 times a day, with an interval of 4 hours each time; At the same time, hot and cold compresses were applied once a day in the morning and evening, once for 10 minutes, and reexamined after a week.
the NPD eye drops prescribed by the doctor cannot be found on the internet and cannot be bought through other channels. only which hospital has them. I really don't remember the Chinese name, only that they are made in Taiwan. Parker eye ointment is the above picture (the picture comes from the network) and is available online. I remember that the eye drops were 120 yuan and the eye ointment was 80 yuan. The doctor did a fluorescence reaction test during the examination. 50 yuan, the registration fee was 10 yuan, and the examination fee was 30 yuan. The total cost was 290 yuan.
after returning home, I strictly followed the doctor's requirements to make cold compress, hot compress and medication for pork belly on time, and tried not to give him hair (beef, sheep, fish, etc.) during this period of time. the dog food he ate was also ZIWI's peak chicken formula. in order to prevent him from getting angry, I did not give him goat's milk during that period of time, instead, it was changed to milch's pet yogurt.
Eye review
A week later, I took the pork belly to have a reexamination. The situation improved obviously. The bag on the eyelid was smaller than before, but it still did not disappear completely. So the doctor prescribed another set according to the previous medication and went home to continue the treatment according to the previous method. This time the medicine cost is the same as before, totaling 200 yuan and the registration fee is 10 yuan, but the corresponding inspection fee is less, totaling 210 yuan. In addition, the doctor told me that if the bag disappeared before the medicine was finished, there would be no need for reexamination.
after returning home, I continued to take care of the pork belly according to the previous method. after almost a week, the medicine was not completely used up, but the bag had completely disappeared. in order to consolidate the curative effect, I insisted on using up all the remaining ointment and liquid medicine. Then observed for a week, no signs of recurrence. The eyes of the pork belly are back to the light of the past, with big shining eyes! ~
in this way, by the end of the treatment, the spiced pork will have fully recovered, which will take about 20 days and cost 600 yuan.
The usual care is also important.
Since then, I have attached great importance to the care of pork belly eyes. after all, eyes are the windows of the soul ~ here I would like to recommend two eye washes to parents. I have always kept these two eye washes at home and use them alternately from time to time. I have already introduced the Willon model in previous experience articles, so I won't say much here.
Today, we will focus on Vic's eye net-this is a mild and non-irritating eye wash that can clean the eyes and around the eyes, and has a certain effect on preventing tear stains. At the same time, it can relieve sensitive eyes. It has a pH of 7.4, which is similar to the pH of natural tears. It is really a good choice for daily eye care. Moreover, the design of this bottle is a conjoined screw cap, which is very convenient to use and has good sealing performance. I clean the eyes and eye circumference of the pork belly once a day in the morning and evening, which can not only prevent bacteria from growing, but also reduce eye excrement and tear stains. after all, Xiao wufa is a white dog, and I can't tolerate him having a little tear stains ~ ~ (please forgive my obsessive-compulsive old mother)
Until now, more than half a year has passed, and this eye disease of pork belly has never recurred, which makes me very gratified ~ Ma Ma Ma will take more care of you in the future, so that you can grow up healthy and happy ~
P.S.: The above is just my personal experience—feel free to take it as a reference!
