Red Inside The Ear?


Guest Latch

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I noticed the other day that the inside of Latch's right ear is red (looks irritated or something). He doesn't seem to be bothered by it, but it looks like a little rash in there...not down by his ear canal, but up a little higher. There are no raised bumps or anything - just red and irritated looking. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about? Could it turn into something worse? If so, how will I know...i.e. - what are the symptoms of an ear infection?

If he's scratching his ears a lot (sounds like he scratched himself) that could be the first sign of an allergy.

 

Keep your eyes on him--and sniff his ear. If it doesn't smell bad or look icky, don't worry too much. If it gets WORSE, you'll have to have the vet take a look at him.
