What is infectious hepatitis in canine? Come and have a look
Infectious hepatitis in dogs mainly occurs in puppies under one year old, and rarely occurs in adult dogs, and is mostly hidden infections, and can be tolerated even if the disease occurs.
Sick dogs and poisoned dogs are the main sources of infection. The secretions and excrements of the sick dogs contain viruses. Rehabilitated poisoned dogs can also detoxify for a long time from the data. The disease is mainly infected by the digestive tract and placental infection, and may also be ectoparasitic, which can become a transmission vector. It has no obvious season of onset, and is more common in winter. The incidence and mortality rates of puppies are relatively high, and this type of acute septic infectious disease will not be transmitted to people.
The general treatment principles adopted for infectious hepatitis in dogs include: basic fluid rehydration treatment, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory oral treatment, symptomatic treatment of jaundice hepatitis, nutritional supplement treatment, immune enhancement treatment and other combined means of symptomatic treatment. If you have medicine at home, you can tell the pet doctor that you can reduce unnecessary expenses. If you go to the hospital for treatment, the examination methods that doctors generally recommend include: 10 biochemical tests, 16 biochemical tests, B-ultrasound tests, nuclear magnetic tests, etc. But it is not recommended that all these need to be done, but that testing other than these items is meaningless to the disease.
Dog infectious hepatitis is a secondary common disease among viral infectious diseases in pet dogs. In the early stage, you can feed some commonly used over-the-counter drugs yourself, or consult online and pay attention to observation. If the symptoms improve not significantly or are not timely, please go to the hospital for treatment nearby. After all, professionals do professional things. If there is blood in the vomit and feces, there is a lot of bad prognosis. If there is no secondary infection, it will usually return to normal within a few days.
