Shmurps Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Another friend's dog has had cancer surgery on his face and jaw. The dog has recovered so well but developed a hot spot on his snout. It is taking sometime to heal do you think Manuka Honey would help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Bones* Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Yep, very good healing properties. Wont hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Provided the fungal issues in the hot spot are resolved the honey will help with the healing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Rules Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I use Living Nature Rescue Gel (which has Manuka Honey in it) on hot spots for the old Goldie, I have never seen anything heal so quickly (within 24 hours!) You have nothing to lose so go for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russkie30 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Also I have used Alpha Keri Oil for over 20 years its fantastic and you don't need much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee lee Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Wouldnt the dog lick it off? Recent patches I cleared up with Betadine paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spottychick Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 It depends on what state the spot is in and what the immediate need is. Manuka honey is good. It can actually kill nasties and will assist with healing. It's good for drawing out infection too. Aloe vera straight from the plant (so it has no addded potential irritants) will seal and heal the wound as well as sooth any heat/irritation and paw paw (the original Lucas one) will speed healing and minimise scarring. I use all three and sometimes have to try one and see if it's helping and switch to another if it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
