2 yo fem Shih Tzu. Treated for chronic ear infections for a year. Isolated root to Allergy (tree spores). Given tramadol, oral & topic antiBs, and Claritin, To comfort her until Allergy Doc follow up next Fri: Ears appear to be cleared, no significant black goo/cheese cleared up- appears to be "ok" Except that it has ?gone deep? Violently shaking head, whimper, unsettled, cannot comfort her, she is trying to get comfy & cannot-goes from spot to spot-nothing is suitable. reduced appetite- cooking to keep protein and nourishment- but not vigorous, as usual. Ear inspection seems ok- less a bit of odor, semi moist. Sweater has helped Shivering, but feels like she has a temp. Vet said take meds-ride it out. Really Concerned- dramatically different pup-SO uncomfortable. Any suggestions to help, soothe, or treat? CAN an ear infection migrate deep, while clearing up more external? Worried it went "Into" her head?? She's SO miserable- meds will semi-sedate for 3-4 hrs, but little one is just Miserable!!
