Dear Chris: >My ferret Buddy, has a diaper rash (urine scalding) below her rectum and >on both her legs. We have tried/are trying Desitin, petroleum jelly, Bag >Balm, and Panalog. Is there anything else I can try, since none of these >is having very rapid results? (One problem with the Desitin is that she >licks, so I can't use that as often as I'd like, but I hate to put her in >a collar.) Actually, you'd never keep her in a collar, anyway. More improtant than what to treat with, is why does she have the rash - soemtimes it is more important to treat the cause, and the symptoms will disappear. No product will have rapid results in this situation without addressing the primary problem. I can list a number of other ointments to try, but without knowing more about the problem (and a picture is always helpful in these cases), I'm afraid none will give you the relief you want. With kindest regards, Bruce Williams, dVM [Posted in FML issue 3295]
