Mouth ulcers are painful lesions that can appear on the tongue, gums, or cheeks of our pets. These wounds can make eating and drinking a painful experience for them. In this article, we will explain how to identify and treat mouth ulcers in pets using Fitovete ® Gel, a product designed to speed up the healing of these annoying lesions.
Common Causes of Mouth Ulcers in Pets:
- Viral or Bacterial Infections: Viruses such as feline calicivirus can cause mouth ulcers in cats. Bacterial infections are also a common cause.
- Allergic Reactions: Some foods or chemicals can trigger allergic reactions that result in ulcers.
- Trauma: Biting on hard or sharp objects can cause small wounds that turn into ulcers.
- Systemic Diseases: Some diseases, such as kidney disease, can manifest with mouth ulcers.
Signs and Symptoms to Watch For:
- Resistance/intolerance to eating or drinking
- Noticeable pain when chewing
- Excessive salivation
- Bad breath
- Mild bleeding in the mouth
Treatment with Fitovete ® Gel:
Fitovete ® Gel is especially effective for treating mouth ulcers thanks to its formula that accelerates tissue regeneration. Apply a small amount of gel directly to the ulcer 2 to 3 times a day, following your veterinarian’s instructions. Within a few days, you should notice a significant improvement in the condition of the ulcer and in your pet’s overall well-being.
Prevention:
In addition to treatment, it is important to identify and eliminate any possible underlying causes, such as irritating foods or objects that may cause injury to the mouth.
Mouth ulcers can be very uncomfortable for your pet, but with the right treatment, it is possible to relieve their pain and promote rapid healing. Fitovete ® Gel is an excellent option to ensure that your pet feels well again as soon as possible.
