2 part question: arthritis & skin tags

[tatev94]

Hi,
Are you saying the anti inflammatory drugs accelerate yeast infections? Because oddly enough, Charlie's yeast infections inbetween his toes have really gotten worse since he's on the AI drug?
Is this common....and if so you're right, it appears to be never ending

Not sure about anti-inflammatories, but antibiotics decrease the normal flora (normal bacteria) in the human body, which screws up the whole natural balance & leaves you susceptible to infections, most commonly fungi/yeast.

Women can avoid yeast infections while they're on antibiotics by either eating yogurt daily while they're on the meds.

Make sure what ever you decide NO ACE! Don't let them talk you out of it or give you the run around. If they do take Bubba some place else. Good luck and keep us posted.

Forgive my ignorance, but what's ACE?

Has your vet ever suggested Rimadyl for arthritis? It worked wonders on my dog...

$400 is a fair price considering the size of the skin tag on his chest. Are they all that big? I've never seen one like that.
