Toby skin lesion/ulcer?

[hopefloats]

It started out as a bump, yesterday it was a ulcer, here is it today, not sure what to call it or what to do for it, He is on baytril right now so just FYI..

I am not sure how to clean it, what to put on it, or what to do for it.

That looks like a keratin cyst especially since he's a nakkie.

Check out this link. Hope that helps.

Looks like a cyst or an abscess...nakies are prone to things like this.

We thought Leo's was a cyst but it turned out to be an abscess. Damp compresses and flushing once it was open cleaned it out and it never recurred. His was on his back.

I saw that thread I think that is what he has on his side i think, it looks like that but this one started with a little bite or scratch. I will follow this one for his side one,

As soon as I saw this pictured I remember it LOL

What can i use to flush it? something I can make at home or a run to walgreens? I have plenty of syringes here...

Is there something I can do to help their skin? he seems to be getting those little black head looking things more and more lately. I am not sure if I can wipe them with something daily to help keep their skin a bit cleaner? or if it even helps matters?

You can use warm water with a bit of salt in it to flush it.
My vet had told me to use oatmeal hand creme on the nakies to keep their skin moisturized.

I will do that, we have some that is for sensitive skin for my daughters......

I will get some water ready, i will probably boil it first, our water has a lot of chlorine in it from the tap.

Now I just need to figure out how to hold him long enough for a compress............I havent mastered that art yet..

Thanks for all the help......
