เอา Forum ที่ www.wvcats.com ของคุณ Maria มาให้อ่านกันเล่นๆค่ะ ยาวหน่อยนะคะ แมวเค้าขาว-ดำชื่อ Jeremy ก็เป็นสิวเหมือนกัน แปลกันเอาเองเด้อค้า... (ขอบคุณหมออ๊อบมากค่ะทำหรับคำ search)
... For anyone who doesn't know, Jeremy has had an "Acne" problem for almost 2 months now. I soon discovered that Acne can be very serious - not just caring for a few "pimples." 4 vet visits later, he got 2 injections - steroid and antibiotic, and I started him on Amoxicyllin twice a day. He also go Pyoben gel on his chin. I also washed his chin twice a day with warm water and a little peroxide. His little mouth was swollen and his chin was black and crusty.
For a while he improved, then it got worse, then improved slightly. Last week I noticed he had scratched himself raw below the black area on his chin. It was around Thanksgiving so the vet wasn't around. I discontinued the Pyoben gel temporarily to see if it improved.
2-3 days ago I noticed that the Acne (black) area was getting better, except for where I was giving him the Amoxicyllin (he gets it in liquid and when I squirt it, some of it drips from the side of his mouth). That side of his mouth looked awful - his lip was very red and the black area worse just in that area.
Friday I decided to stop the Amoxicyllin too. I just continued washing his mouth with Peroxide followed by a nice clean warm washcloth. He doesn't mind that at all. Today, I have to say it looks worlds better! His chin has very little black on it in the area where the Amoxicyllin was being administered. Also, I haven't noticed him scratching his chin like before - unless he does it when I'm asleep.
Also, I'm not sure if his lip is really swollen anymore at all. I think it may "appear" swollen because he lost all is white fur in that area, so the pink lip looks "larger" but it may be that I'm used to seeing it white in that area.
He has improved immensely in the last few days. I think the medication was aggravating it. I'm going to continue the wash for a few days before I call the vet. This may just do it.
I'm so happy to see him look better, and I sure hope it disappears - and that his beautiful white fur grows back. He actually let me hold him on my lap tonight for quite a while (I even picked him up). He hasn't wanted to do that since I've been medicating him. He is such a sweet sweet boy! He was the perfect choice for Molly. They're such good friends. 8)
I just wanted to share the good news - I was feeling pretty hopeless for a while - everytime I looked at him. His face almost looked deformed. It's so good to see him improve - it's about time!
