Little update in chestnut and nutmeg

Nutmegs eye doesn't seem to be getting worse which is a plus I keep treating it I know it'll take a while to clear up

Chestnuts ear is getting better the dryness on her ear isn't as bad as it was and her ears inside arent peeling anymore just dry. Hopefully it clears up soon so acorn can meet them.

Without reading back, what have you been putting on it?

It doesn't look to me like anything that coconut oil would help.

@bpatters, coconut oil won't work for fungal?

An I've been using micatin it has miconazole nitrate 2% in it. It seem to be getting better her eye isn't droopy and you can see her skin as opposed to flaky skin and scurfyness

Coconut oil has mild antifungal properties, but I don't think it'll work for an infection that's really set in.

How often are you applying the micatin?

It takes a while to get a fungus under control. And you should continue to use it even after it starts to improve. Keep on with it until the area looks all healed.

@bpatters do you see improvement a little from the previous picture or is it just my high hopes?

I've been using it every day 2x a day ad now as with acorn what helped her s mixing it up missing a day and treating it the next missing two days then treatig it. Then treating it 3 times and so on and so forth. It worked really well for acorn when we I'd that. Saw improvement with in a week after have treating her 2x a day.

I can't really tell whether it looks better or not. Maybe.

But I wouldn't skip doses of the medicine. Medicines are most effective when they're maintained at a steady level. If you don't think the Micatin is working, switch to Monistat or Lotrimin -- they're slightly different antifungal preparations, and may be more effective.

@ lynx I sure hope so, her is what caught my attention so quickly when I went to treat her today and noticed it wasn't as droopy as the previous picture. So she doesn't look as bad.
