Lilysmom Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 My brown stinky stripey dog Lily has an ear infection, diagnosed last week. She's doing ok, letting us put ear drops in. Tuesday morning when I got home from work I got pups ready for their morning, Lily yelped as I put her collar on, not good, I didn't touch her ear at all. Once getting home I let them rest a bit and began to get their breakfast ready. Well, Lily never got off the dog bed. That's a first in 7 years! I was watching her and you know how you can tell something is off just by looking at them? Well I knew that was the case. I had called the vet prior to our walk to get her in, well after getting back from the walk I called the vet back and asked for the earliest possible appointment, thankfully we got in at 9:20am. Vet examined her ear, which looked better, and did a cleaning on it just in case that was the problem. She then examined her face/neck, well low and behold when she touched her left jaw Lily just about went crazy with yelping. I have no idea why her jaw would be so painful. Vet said it could be TMJ, (had no idea dogs could get that). She prescribed pain meds. We'll see how she is at the end of the week, if she is still having pain she will get xrays to make sure everything is ok. Ok enough of my rambling, I'm asking that GT work their magic and get the prayer chain going for my girl. She does seem a bit better, but I will be keeping close watch on her. Thanks!

Guest argolola Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I will pray for her too. Rudy had a bad ear infection, but drops weren't enough. He had to be put on an antibiotic to clear it up. He was also screaming in pain. Please keep us posted on how she's doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Energy11 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Hope Lily feels better soon. Did the vet mention a possible infected or blocked salivary gland? The antibiotics would definitely help it. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetdogs Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 The ear & the jaw are very close - could it be she has an infection really deep in the ear & the pain is radiating down her jaw? Was the ear infection on the same side as the jaw pain? I hope she feels better soon. Quote Deirdre with Conor (Daring Pocobueno), Keeva (Kiowa Mimi Mona), & kittehs Gemma & robthomas.
