EPET PAWS - EPET PAWS

Hello, everyone. My name is Xiaopang. I am one and a half years old now. I am a little Satsuma who always smiles. I used to be Yushu Linfeng, but a scrotitis completely changed my life. Although the doctor tried his best to cure it, I still lost the chance to be a good husband and father forever, so I went further and further on the road of being a sissy. Everyone has learned about my operation process in Xiaopangya Denaturation (Part 1). Now let me continue to share with you my post-operative care.

As mentioned above, I arrived home safely after the operation, and I officially started my work as a nurse..

"How are you going to take care of me?" Asked Xiao Pang?

Dogs need to be fasted for a period of time after surgery, mainly to avoid foreign bodies choking into the respiratory tract and endangering their lives. When the dog is fully awake, it can be fed some nutritional cream or digestible and highly nutritious food.

The critical period is within 24 hours after surgery, during which the dog's body temperature may drop, and vomiting or other adverse reactions may occur due to the stimulation of the stomach and intestines by anesthetics. The home environment must be clean to avoid wound infection and so on. Be sure to keep warm

at home. You can put on clothes or prepare blankets for the dog. I hardly slept that night. I took my temperature irregularly. My temperature was always around 37.5. I vomited twice. The overall situation was normal.

In addition, when the dog is fully awake, it will feel pain in the wound, which will affect the recovery of appetite, physical strength and so on. Fat people have been restless at home. We should comfort them in time. If necessary, we can ask the doctor to prescribe special painkillers for pets to help them recover smoothly.

Dogs will be weak after surgery and try to avoid going out or doing strenuous exercise for a week. Because the wounds of male dogs are not bandaged, only a layer of medicine is applied to the outer layer, so in order to prevent them from licking the wounds, they must wear Elizabeth rings 24 hours a day. At the same time, they must be careful not to let them rub the wounds on the ground or other places. If necessary, they can be kept in cages and covered with mats.

In order to prevent wound infection or inflammation, a few days ago, we need to have an anti-inflammatory injection or take anti-inflammatory drugs orally. Fat is because the injection is too hard, so we eat it directly.

"When can I have fun?" Asked Xiao Pang?

You'd better pay close attention to your pet's wound at any time. If there is swelling, bleeding and purulence, you must seek medical treatment as soon as possible. Generally speaking, 3 days after the operation, go to the hospital to review the wound. If there is no infection or dehiscence, you can go to the hospital to remove the stitches after 10-14 days. After removing the stitches, the dog will be reborn and can play happily.

Xiaopang Ah Seven Questions: My Changes After Sterilization

Because of physiological changes, affecting the dog's hormone secretion, when the dog's hormone levels stabilize, you will find that the dog's behavior habits and personality are different from the original, so the neutered dog will become more docile, but the neutered dog is prone to obesity or urinary stones, you can choose the neutered prescription food or low-protein dog food to control the intake.

Fat ah did not choose sterilization prescription food, but daily control of the amount of feeding, half a year weight gain of only 5, 6 kg, the overall situation of control is fairly good.

PS: Please ignore the typo of our name..

Small TIPS:

Overall, sterilization surgery is already a mature routine surgery, as long as you choose a regular hospital, the risk of surgery is relatively small, and finally summarize some normal and abnormal conditions after surgery.

These phenomena are normal:

1. In the process of awakening, the dog may have shortness of breath, trembling and stiffness of limbs;

2. May be incontinent, or shake your head, drool or even vomit;

3. The dog may have poor appetite and listlessness within 1-2 days after the operation;

4. Slight cough may occur after surgery using inhalation anesthesia.

These phenomena are not good, please contact the doctor in time:

1. Extremely rapid and unstable breathing, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, a large amount of mucus or vomit in the mouth, affecting normal breathing. The oral mucosa and the tongue surface are purple in color;

2. Body temperature continues to be lower than 37 degrees;

3. A large amount of fluid or blood oozes from the surgical wound;

4. Urine and urine contaminate the wound, or bite off the dressing of the wound;

5. Feel that the dog is very painful, which affects the normal rest.

The pros and cons of neutering have always been a matter of opinion, but we all want our dogs to be healthy and happy with us for a long time.
