Yeast Infections Pt 2

treating bread in the ears.

Once your pets ear infection has been diagnosed as yeast you can start treating. Of course, ask your veterinarian if they feel holistic treatment would work for your pet. Remember, yeast infections, especially ones that have gone on a long time, are PAINFUL! It can be explained as a burning itch.

Holistic ear treatment is a course of white or apple cider vinegar and water.

1. Make a mixture of 50% vinegar and 50% water.

2. taking roll cotton (found at most stores) and rip long thin strips.

3. soak strips in mixture and stuff into ear canals. (remember your pets ear canals are MUCH longer than yours.)

4. While grasping the entire ear, rub vigorously.

5. Remove and repeat with new cotton until your strip comes out mostly clean.

6. Finish with one last dry strip to remove most excess liquid (which is what caused it in the first place)

Repeat once daily for 7 days. If not improved, see your vet again and seek other treatment.
