The fur on the hamster‘s body is also very thick and thick, which is also the best place for bacteria to breed. The proliferation of bacteria and fungi can cause hamsters to suffer from serious skin diseases, causing itching, redness and swelling on the hamster’s fur, and severe hair loss. For this reason, parents need to treat the hamster in time to relieve the skin disease. There are four main types of skin diseases in hamsters. Such as nutritional dermatitis, parasitic dermatitis, allergic dermatitis, bacterial dermatitis. When hamsters eat less than 16% of the protein in the feed, and use a single food for a long time, it will lead to malnutrition and nutritional dermatitis in the hamster. Affected hamsters are prone to hair loss, and hair loss occurs on the face and limbs. At this time, parents need to improve the hamster’s food in time, prepare more nutritious food, and at the same time need to appropriately add some vitamins, minerals, protein powder and other nutrients to the food to strengthen the attack of hamster nutrition and treat skin diseases.
Parasitic dermatitis is mainly affected by lice, fleas, and mites. The skin of the sick hamster will be itchy, and in severe cases, the skin will be red, swollen and depilated, and the immunity of the hamster will be weakened and other complications will be induced. At this time, parents should first determine which parasite the hamster is attacked by, and then choose the appropriate drug to deworm, achieve the purpose of sterilization, and relieve the hamster’s dermatitis symptoms. In addition, for allergic dermatitis, parents should first find the allergen for the hamster, then remove the allergen and take effective allergic drugs to achieve the purpose of treating dermatitis. At the same time, to treat bacterial dermatitis, professional veterinarians are needed to provide help. In life, it is necessary to clean up the environment in time to prevent the breeding and reproduction of bacteria, so as to protect the health of pet mice and stay away from the damage of dermatitis diseases.
