What Natural Remedy Can Help Small Dog With Cyst or Boil on Chest?

Posted By Djeanae73 (The Colony Tx 75056) on 03/06/2017

Hi, I've been noticing a what looks like a cyst or boil which might be an abscess as big as a dime on her under chest area but I always keep her in her dresses or sweaters. I have essential oils I know they work for skin issues I made my own concoction to stop my step daughter psoriasis and it's going away it looks like a bruise but yes I see how fast my oils helped her skin issues. I know my oils can be used on dogs with skin issues. I've got Tea tree, patchouli, lavender frankincense lavender bergamot plus more. Frankincense Tea Tree and either bergamont help all skin issues majors like MRSA. If I used my oil to help my doggie she couldn't lick it it's under one of her outfits.

Any advice or help me in the right direction with helping Niña she's a toy chihuahua I hate seeing anything that can harm or give pain to my doggie or other doggies. I'm a professional dog sitter so she's around other doggie. Please help me help my doggie Niña! Thank you so much! Danielle Jeanae

Start mixing powdered turmeric into her food each time you feed her. Here's an EC link about the benefits of turmeric for dogs, along with dosage by weight: https://www.earthclinic.com/pets/turmeric.html

The wonderful Theresa from Minneapolis, MN has been helping pet owners and their beloved pets around the world on Earth Clinic since 2013.

About Theresa

Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.

Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.

Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and  fueled  her quest for the knowledge held in lore,  and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.

Hello Danielle Jeanae,

My first thought is get your dog out of her outfits and remove all of her clothing - let her skin breathe and make sure there is nothing to irritate her skin by rubbing. My second thought is that you should see the vet to get a better idea of what you are dealing with, be it a benign fatty tumor, or a malignant mast cell tumor, or a painful infected abscess that might need draining. It is hard to tell from what you have shared exactly what you are seeing and describing - something that looks like a bruise might be a bruise, or might be a fungal yeast infection or might be normal pigment that has taken its time to fill in. So again, please see your vet and then report back.
