EAR HEMATOMA IN PETS
Ear Hematoma in Cats and Dogs can result from any injury to ear flap. Accidentally blood vessels inside the flap are ruptured and blood starts accumulating inside the flap making a small balloon at the site. Area feels semi soft to touch. In most cases ear infection could be the primary reason that turned into ear hematoma but in some cases inner ear looks clear.
Fleas could be another reason. When crawling close to ears and biting those areas can result into local irritation. Pets try to get rid of problem by rubbing with paws and accidentally may injure the blood vessels. Unfortunately in Windsor area Flea Allergy in pets is very common problem. It is advisable to check your pets for fleas on regular basis and keep them on monthly flea preventive program.
