Experts Reveal What Pet Owners Should Know About Septic Arthritis In Dogs
(firmenpresse) - Orlando, FL – January, 2016 – Arthritic conditions do not only affect humans but also animals, including dogs. One of the most popular arthritic conditions is called septic arthritis. Learning about this condition can help furry family members get the help they need.
Experts reveal what pet owners should know about septic arthritis in dogs. This type of joint inflammation often takes place after a traumatic injury. When the injury exposes the joint to certain contaminants such as from environmental microorganism, the condition develops.
Microorganisms use the blood stream to enter the joints. Infection is one of the sources of these microorganisms, which usually end up inside the joint fluid. In some dogs, more than one joint is usually affected by the infection.
The difference is that arthritis is characterized by inflammation in one or more bone joints. Septic arthritis, on the other hand, is recognized not just by inflammation but also the presence of bacterial microorganisms with the joint fluid affected.
Septic arthritis is common in male dogs that are between ages four to seven years. There are breeds believed to be highly susceptible to the condition such as Dobermans, German shepherds, and Labrador retrievers.
According to experts, there are underlying factors that contribute to the high susceptibility of this condition. Dogs with diabetes have weakened immune systems. The underlying factors are fungal and bacterial infections as well as opportunistic infections after a bite wound or injury.
The joint fluid is often analyzed to determine the type of bacteria that’s causing the infection. Some of the symptoms of septic arthritis are fever, lack of appetite, lethargy, joint swelling, and pain. These symptoms can be debilitating, and this is why more and more pet owners are resorting to various measures to help their pets.
Today, there is a variety of remedies available to help dogs achieve an improvement in their pain and overall condition. There are pain relief medications that are formulated to help dogs achieve pain relief. While they temporarily provide a solution, they have the potential to cause side effects.
The widespread scare in the use of pain medications has led many pet owners to find natural remedies believed to be as effective as the pharmaceutical drugs, but are nonetheless safer. One of these natural alternatives is glucosamine supplements.
Glucosamine has long been used for arthritic conditions both in humans and animals. It is thought to help repair the damage in the cartilage and regain its health. It is even widely believed to be a better alternative to pain relief medications (amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Supplement-2000mg-serving/dp/B0126ZF0B0).
