When it comes to keloid removal, it can be a difficult process because there's the chance of them growing back, but many times between their ugly appearance and affecting mobility, keloid treatment needs to be sought after.

Firstly, you can keep your dog away from whatever is making them react. This is not always easy. While you can regulate their diet to stop them eating a food they're allergic to, and keep fleas off them, it's not easy to avoid exposure to a flowering plant, for example. The second way of treating allergic symptoms is to give your dog medication that stops their body reacting to the allergen. Anti-histamines are a good first choice for this.

They can affect your dog's liver and kidneys, they may lead to Cushing's Disease and they can increase the risk of infection. Having said that, used carefully, they can really...more
