Subject: Re: Question re: skin infection that looks like ringworm Author: Cher [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:02:05 10/19/06 Thu In reply to: Michele 's message, "Question re: skin infection that looks like ringworm" on 17:01:23 10/18/06 Wed My crested has gotten exactly what you describe several times. It starts as a bump or scratch, and he will not stop licking it until it spreads out and looks like a giant ring of lighter colored skin, resembling ringworm. I assume it is an allergic reaction of some sort. What works for him is to apply a small amount of cortisone cream once a day and keep a shirt on him, to prevent licking, until it goes away, (this can take a few weeks!). If it is on the leg, you will need pajamas!Good luck! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
