Hi, Itching nd swelling near the anus in dogs can be caused by several issues such as anal gland impaction or inf., parasitic infestation (like worms or fleas), allergic reactions or localized skin inf. What you can do your own at home- Check for visible parasites (like fleas/ticks). Deworm your dog if it hasn't been done in last 1–2 m. Warm compress the area to reduce swelling. Prevent licking orbiting the area by using an e-collar. Keep the area clean nd dry nd avoid applying any human meds/creams.
Health Tips
Becs swelling is present, I strongly recomend a clinical examination. If it's an anal gland issue, manual expression /+ antibiotics might be needed. Yr vet may also prescribe anti-inflamatory or anti-Allergic meds depending on the cause.Pls don’t delay a visit — early treatment can prevent further discomfort or inf. Best regards, Dr. SY 🙏
