Treatment for fungal infections in dogs is currently available to us in the form of topical, oral, medicated baths, injections, and these. If the infection is not very serious and is just a single spot, then we can simply apply topical Mineralin, together with a bath if possible, to the affected area and the surrounding skin. The affected area and surrounding area should be shaved and the medication should be applied to the affected area and surrounding skin. If the dog is seriously infected and the affected areas are all over the body, a weekly bath and daily topical application of Mineralin is recommended, together with injections and oral treatment with vitamin solution is recommended. Special note: During the medication period you can put an Elizabethan collar on your dog to prevent them from licking the affected area, which could lead to ulcers and pus, or biting the skin and bleeding. The treatment process for fungal skin diseases in dogs usually takes 1-2 months, but if the right medication is administered and the skin absorbs well enough, it will usually improve in about 2 weeks, so be more patient and persevere with the treatment.
