Hemorrhoids On Dogs
Can I treat my dog with human hemorrhoid creams such as prep H?
Hi, I took my dog (black lab) to the vet with a very itchy bottom, she was constantly licking it and dragging it along the floor. I noticed a small pea sized swelling which was exactly like hemorrhoids. I made an appointment with the vet but on the day I took her the swelling had gone down. He told me her problem was her anal glands( which when he emptied were not even full) and when I said I thought she had hemorrhoids he poo pooed me and insisted dogs dont get hemorrhoids. (He also did a rectal exam with his finger and said she was fine). I took her home, the poor things itching had not improved and a few days later the pea sized hemorrhoid had returned. After looking this up I now know dogs DO get hemorrhoids and I am very annoyed with my vet. I am interested to know has anyone else had a similar experience with their vet and can I use a human treatment such as preparation H on her? Thank you.
I have never heard of a dog getting hemorrroids so I would not recomend using anything! I would wonder if perhaps she is straining too hard to have a bowel movement.
What ever the reason she needs to see a vet to determine what exactly is going on with her. Using any human meds will do more harm than good for this situation! have her seen!
