Here's why:
* Ear infections can be serious: They can lead to pain, discomfort, and even permanent hearing loss if left untreated.
* Home remedies are not always effective: They may not address the underlying cause of the infection, and could even make things worse.
* Some remedies can be harmful: Using certain substances in your dog's ear can irritate or damage the delicate tissues.
Instead of home remedies, I urge you to:
1. See your vet immediately. They can properly diagnose the infection, determine the cause, and prescribe the right treatment.
2. Follow your vet's instructions carefully. This may include medication, cleaning solutions, and special ear care instructions.
Remember, your dog's health is your top priority. Don't delay seeking professional help!
