Click bait video. Nothing informative here. Message from the video : "Go see a vet and pay for expensive surgery". That should be the title of the video.
Do YOU have haematoma? He just explained various solutions, you just came here looking for what YOU want. The internet isn't yours.
Another vet video suggested leeching as one effective option for hematomas surprisingly enough.
Typical vet. Straight to expensive surgery
My dog is a 10 yr old mastiff I was scared stiff about him going under anethesetic at his age so I left the hematoma to heal on it own but the poor dog was in so much pain so I got it surgically removed everything went well except he now has an infection in the wound area 7 days after the surgery ringing vet in the morning
I’m trying to find out what to do if it opened up and is draining on its own
Typical Vet on YT...giving us obvious information and not telling us 'how' to remedy the dogs problem, the hematoma. I've found on another site the following; (1) Traumeel - topical ointment cream - apply 2x to 3x daily. (2) Licorice Tincture - 1ml/40# dogs weight - apply daily for 5 consecutive days, then re-evaluate (3) 95% Curcuminoids - these are tablets & they're taken 2x/day and 100mg/10# of dogs weight. (4) Topical Curcumin - this is another type of cream. (5) Tea Tree Oil - mix a/b 5 drops of this w/ a 50% solution of Olive Oil. This last one is what i'm using on my dog - just discovered it today. I was lucky to find this information, since my YT Vets tell us a lot of information about 'what' the symptom is but NOT how to remedy it - They want you & I, to bring our animal in for surgery ~ good luck people, hoped this helps out for your precious animal . Btw, these (5) solutions for hematoma also applies to cats as well ~
@BUDDYDOG1956 THANK U
Thank you for typing it out… I’m trying to find a way to copy your reply onto my notes…
I took a pic of your response.. I just found my girls hematoma today.. She’s almost 11, and has arthritis, so I don’t want to put her under anesthesia unless it’s life saving, and I know her Vet’s office will tell me to.. Also, I don’t know, just thank you.. My hands are shaking from nerves about my girl.. Ty for typing it out 🙏🙏🙏🙏🧐🐶❤😮
Thank you!!! Thank you!!
My dog can't have surgery because of her kidneys and heart. Is there anything else I can do for her?
I am sorry, where's the solution to curing it?
Abhishek Saini exactly!!!
I just forked over $325 and it was back in a week. The next solution will be much much more expensive and will require general anesthesia to basically suture the ear together in several places😕
@@ANew-cs5vy hey don’t go for any kinda treatment! Leave it be and it’ll get better itself in a month or two. Any kind of treatment only makes it worse! My dog isn’t with us anymore but it worked on him.
thank you very much
My lab had massive recurrent haematomas in both ears. Tried conservative approach multiple times but it kept coming back until finally getting surgery which fixed it permanently but caused slight deformation of his ears which wasn't too bad Cus it kinda made him look cuter tbh lol
The dogs haematoma is mostly healed but the ear is droopy in my german shepherd.
Just took my girl this afternoon for surgery for this issue. I'd been taking her twice a week to get it
drained by needle, it would refill in no time. Hopefully the surgery will cure the issue. 🙏🏽✨🐕
I trust the surgery worked. What was the cost?
What size is considered big
my dog had a hematoma 2 years ago. brought him to have it drained and it filled back up within a day or 2. so, i left it be and it shrank within a week and healed completely within a month. now he has one on the other ear, brought him in to have it drained again and it’s back faster and bigger than the last one was. i guess i’ll let it heal on its own as getting it drained is traumatizing for him. he is on pain medications and i hope it’ll heal as quickly as the last one did
Please let us know how is your furry friend now? My dog developed hematoma last week and we are unsure whether to go for surgery or let it heal itself? The liquid was drained twice in 1 week. And now the liquid has filled up again. We are feeling helpless and unsure what to do..
@@badrinathmorey5415 Hi there. My dog’s hematoma recovered on its own in about 8 (long) days. I felt hopeless at first too, but be patient and wait it out. The best thing to do is get your dog into an e-collar and wait it out. Pain meds help the discomfort too. Hope your dog is doing ok!
How did your dog end up doing? My 11 year old lab had a hematoma 2 weeks ago and they put a cannula in. It got removed and now 4 days later it is full again. My dog has been through some major health issues in the past 2 months, so I am hesitant to take her back to the vet again, if this will in fact clear on its own
@@TheAmandatiseo1 my dog is all good now, no recurring hematoma after the second one went away. we did drain it at the vets and it swelled back up the day after. we decided to leave it and it healed on its own in about 8 or so days
@@nicolepereira3750 I have at least a 10 year old pit he got into a fight with his son a while back (3+ years or so) and it split the tip of his ear it still looks like a normal but u can move both sides back n forth on each side of the point but I was giving him a bath the other day and on one of the sides of his split ear is what looks like a hematoma he doesn't seem in pain that much he's not really itching at his ear at all I got a big backyard that's not fenced in and next to like a pond kinda ik he gets fleas from being in the backyard but I've been trying to keep him shampooed with flea shampoo to stop his itching I don't have the money for a vet really but I read online it can cause permanent damage to the ear and maybe hearing when I touch it I can tell he's in a little pain tho I don't want my dog to get hurt but I also don't got 500 for a vet visit for it to maybe come back idk I need advice
I have done just a needle aspiration and small hole to drain it.
My worries for my gsd s ear ll come to standing position r it ll remain lying position
Plz help me to see him back with standing ears in which he looks awesome
Frenchie had one, drained and became hard as a rock, folded. Now he has one on his right ear! He will lose both of those beautiful Frenchie, Dumbo ears😥 for crinkly, folded ones. Not much we can do. He will NEVER let us take him to the vet. His past trauma is severe. They don’t drain or go away too. So, my boy is changing and I wish his ears would stay up
My dogs ear is swollen and shiny pink is this it ?? Its not in one spot it's the whole inside ear pretty much
That's what ours looked like. A baloon ear and lost the fur on the inside. She had another sore on her upper cheek same side to eventually took her to the vet. He drained it. Trying to find a way to compress it to keep it from filling again.
@@gardenfairy351 the vet knows how to keep it drained, they're supposed to irrigate the ear with a drainage, if they didn't the probably were just trying to get you to keep spending, which is sad, my dog now has this issue I just discovered
@@wilsonlooney4398 actually if you read up on it they usually do refill. We never went back to vet. We tried to keep it wrapped up (what a joke), kept a cone on her and used the antibiotic. It filled up a bit, then down but never back to normal.
What if is on the external area🙄
Hi Doc. My dog got a hematoma about 8 weeks ago. It got to the point where the whole ear was filled with blood. My dog starting whimpering when it was touched. I ended up getting it drained at the vet, then drained it myself 2 more times over a few weeks. It kept filling up so I ended up getting the surgery done. After 3 weeks the stitches came out, and now 2 weeks later it has come back. My question is, if the hematoma takes up the whole ear, does it need to be treated any differently? Even though I know he will be in pain in the coming days/weeks, is it ok to leave it be? Thanks for any response in advance!
@@amyfarkas8359 yea mine is allergic to everything too. And gets bad yeast infections in his ear. Ive left his ear alone for a few weeks now and it has stayed at a constant size and doesnt seem to be hurting him, so im gonna leave it. If you can leave it, I would. I know he's crying and whimpering, but I think its better ro leave it and wait it out. Just make sure he's as comfortable as possible. Id also reccomend getting a no flap ear wrap to keep it in place. Either that, or depending on the size of your pup you could take an ace bandage or what I did initially before getting the ear wrap, I cut a sleeve off a long sleeve under armor compression shirt.
Cody Mullen did his ear get better
cube5000 histill has a little fluid in his ear, but it is much better than it was. It is starting to cauliflower up as well. It’s been about 2 months and isn’t completely receded, but it is almost there
Cody Mullen how did you drain you dogs at home
Same here the vet bill for the operation 720 just the operation and she till got collar on and large slit in ear
I cried
If your dog experiences this, and he/she is not in good health or older, surgery is not an option. Correction of the ear hematoma is using an Auralsplint. No anesthesia and no surgical wounds. Also very cost friendly.
I have seen this done at home and we have done this with a cat. used a syringe from the farm store and drained it, and also injected daily with PenG, according to weight. So the fleas have been real bad and guess what, my 10 yr old Lab Rott has it. She shakes her head a lot and scratches. We have drained it two days now and it keeps coming back. After doing some more research it looks like whether I drain it or the vet drains it, it will come back every day. The cat wasn't quite this difficult, and it wasn't WWF wrestling, either.
Steroids would help more with swelling , not antibiotics. Hopefully you're doing a very clean procedure.
The fleas caused it?
Thank you for this video. My vet suggested surgery before even looking at the ear. She is a mastiff and 10 year old... the anesthesia is more of a concern to me at this point. I'm letting it heal on its own.
Karen Dwyer my terrier mix has one too. he is 12. i am concerned about any surgery as well.
Mike O'Hara... I hope everything works out for you and your fur baby. I'm going to err on the side of caution and not risk anesthesia. I would never forgive myself if something went wrong. If it were a true emergency I would take further action but at the moment she isn't even acknowledging the area... if not for my constant ear checks we probably wouldn't even have discovered the lump. Best of luck with your little one ❤
Hi karen how did the non surgery method go? How does the ear look now?
Hi Karen, do you mind if I ask how did things go with your dog's ear hematoma and no surgery? Did it resolve by itself? Thank you so much!
Yeah Karen let us know! Thanks!
Imagine using an aural splint to hold the ear upright, not bent over folded against his head using an ear wrap. A splint performs the function of allowing the animal to heal itself. No cutting, no medications or costly pharma.
I'm so worried about my dog. He jumped up on my lap and put his head on my arm and I felt something werid. I look and I saw a inch long bubble in his ear. I'm still freaking out! I don't have the money for a vet visit and I don't know what I can do to help him! I don't want my little baby to be in pain!
Lowell Deepnya go to amazon
Buy cleaning ear , ear infection
How is your baby? Borrow money, but do what needs to be done, please! That said, it can reabsorb on its own, like the Vet says in this video. And you can watch the one "Ear Hematoma in Dogs. A Non-Surgical Option", plus treat the infection/allergy that caused it. Thank you!

My dogs hematoma just got surgery removed.
This was 3 week ago she walk around with collar and hole in ear
$$$ medicines, surgery, and blood all over the place. All because the clinic prefers revenue over outcome.
Yes it still not clear up it a mess
720pounds it cost
Still back and forward to vets
Not paying anymore out
Very disappointing
How has your dog's ear been??? I'm curious because my boy has one now too😢
My dog is bleeding on the outside of the ear it's a hole of blood on top i need help
What did you end up doing???? His hematoma popped? How did you asses that situation I'm curious because now my dog has one
@@wilsonlooney4398 we put one of those cone around his head to prevent him from scratching. We also put something to heal the wound
Can the swelling go down by itself?
Yes but it causes the dogs ear to shrivel up
Saved me $2,300 the vet wanted for surgery etc!
Tips I suggest: use an ice cube to cold numb the dog's ear for a bit before the needle!
You must use a Small diameter needle/tip!
Use a flashlight against the ear, to see through the ear so you avoid any veins when placing the needle.
Possibly place the needle in like the center of the bulge sack.
Attaching the needle syringe might help suck out the liquid.
Take care
It came back didn't it
I did that it keeps coming back. I saw another video they say just leave it alone and it'll go away on it's own
My dog has one
I read online if u catch it early, you can use leeches
I’m going to give that a shot
Where the hell would you buy leeches?
@@Scott-id7pq fishing bait store. In Wisconsin, they have them at Fleet Farm.
@@BlueeyzCaL I got it drained at the vet today. $105 with steroids and antibiotics to take every day.
I ended up having a hard time getting leeches actually. Because I’m in Milwaukee , wi. So I took him good luck and I FYI I did see videos of people actually doing it
@@Scott-id7pq its happen again ?
does anyone know how much it cost for surgery?
miguel ortiz my boxer dog had a op and it cost £247 he is now back to his happy self worth every penny x
Here in the states I paid almost $600 for the first surgery & $500 for the second (as it redeveloped 2 weeks later...). It wasn't until after the hematoma reappeared that my Vet explained sometimes multiple surgeries are necessary. Needless to say it was VERY traumatic for both my dog & myself and I'd never do it again...
@@TubularBelle16 thank you. this helped me with deciding not to do this with my lovely 14 year old black lab......
My vet opened it up and drained it and put a tube in his ear for 165.00
500-$600 and it came back in a week, told me they would charge the same to do it again, I am not happy!
My dogs ear is kinda just inflated.like when i press it it feels like air is inside of it,he.doesnt scratch or shake the head violently,why is that happening?(i don't know much about dogs)
Edit:finds out he has blood inside the swollen part. But he still doesnt do the weird stuff,he is 4 months old by the way.
Octane how is he now?
My 2 dogs to much rough house
😮😮😢 parabéns
Boo!!! Check with your vet, don’t say how to heal if you’re not telling any USEFUL INFORMATION!!!
Nothing about healing it, no point in this video!
Michael Oliver you cant heal a hematoma, the only healing is surgery to drain the blood
Jesus! Ear hematomas can heal on their own, it will take time for the body to absorb the fluid
@@jons2 btw... it healed with no surgery.
@Diehard Christmas Movie my German Shepard is 10, it was approximately 1-1 1/2" long and about 1" wide. I read about it on the Internet and it was correct, it took a few months for this to clear up and go away. The ear reabsorbs the blood. The dog could have some disfiguration afterwards as well but that really didn't bother me. Mine is too old to be going under and I can't just drop 500$+ on an ear surgery that there is NO guarantee that it will fix it. My dog did not appear to be in any pain unless he was scratching his ear because it itched for other reasons. His ear is back to flat, but it isn't soft like it was before in that one spot, again, doesn't matter.
@Diehard Christmas Movie My dogs was warm too and soft. It was not an easy time and we had to keep him from scratching so it could heal... took several months but I felt confident that I was doing the right thing because I read so many places on the internet that it WILL absorb back into the body AND that the vet surgery is NOT guaranteed. Some experiences I read about, the owners ended up going back to the vet a couple of times shelling out $$$ for more than one fix and the dogs ear ended up being disfigured even then... its a very frustrating and slow process. Do some research of your own because ultimately its your decision.
All I want to know is what kind of dog is that? She looks identical to my childhood dog but that was before doggie DNA tests 😢
Hello Sir.. My dog too has this haematoma on his left ear and is swollen looking like a small baloon.. The vet has suggested a operation.. I am uncomfortable and worried for this operation and cutting of ear.. My dog is my son and i am afraid for this.. Is there a different way out rather then cutting and operating?? Please suggest.. Would apreciate your help in this regards..
Champ's Vlogs what did you do? Please reply. Is he alright?
@@giftykiruba1134 Yes he is Fine.. i started a Aayurvedic medicine and applied warm turmeric 2 times a day.. Happily the swollen ear was healed and is back to normal.. I am happy i didnt had to operate it..
@@giftykiruba1134 Thank you for asking..😊
Champ's Vlogs thank u so much for the reply. What ayurvedic medicine did u use? Could you please elaborate. My little furbaby has one in his ear. Is the ear completely normal or wrinkled? Happy your furbaby is doing fine.
@@giftykiruba1134 Sure.. Just to correct myself, it is a Homoeopathic medicine.. The Doc has gave 2 bottles of.. 1 is "20ml mother tinchure. Hamamelis Virg O" which is a liquid, 4 drops - 2 times a day.. & for 2nd bottle the Sticker has got some stains so name is not visible properly, however it says Arpuca, i guess, which look like small size sugar balls, smaller then black pepper.. 4 balls 2 times a day.. + last important step- Turmeric.. wild turmeric or normal powdered easily available.. take luke warm oil upto quarter spoon and add the turmeric, mix it and apply inside and outside of the ear 1 or 2 times a day when he is sleepy so that it holds.. apply a thin layer inside the ear to make sure the particles dont go in.. and clean his ear with a ear bud as you will see wax growing.. My dogs ear was like a baloon when i started this and it was back to normal in 30-35 days.. worth waiting then cutting the ear.. saw a surgery video on youtube and was horrified.. About wrinkles i can say i can say its just 2-3 percent of small part that i see now that is left to heal.. its normal, coz the skin takes time to compress back.. you can send me your email id.. i can send you the pictures of the bottles.. later will confirm you the name of 2nd bottle from VET..
Thank you..
Take care of your pet.. God bless him..😊
My loads of love for him..🤗
Let it reabsorb on it's own. Much less traumatic to the dog.
Even if it's big?
BergenBergen BergenBergen you can let it resolve itself, however your dog will be in a fair amount of pain. Your dogs ear will become a “cauliflower ear”
How long g does it take to heal on it's own
Don't let it heal on its own. Google dog cauliflower ear. The dogs ear is painful and will end up scrunched up after it's healed

Dr quack.. all about the damn money. I'd be poor vet because i couldn't charge money for little things such as this. My vet charges 47 bucks to drain my dog's ear. I drain it at home a little bit here and there. .until I can afford any surgery..
How's ur dog ?
I drained my dog's ear but it's all water. What is that?
To answer your question, and anyone who has the same, it's not water, but Serum or Plasma. It's what your red blood cells are suspended in. If that's what is in the ear, it means it's a blister, or it WAS a hematoma, but it has since clotted and is on the mend. Most likely, it's a good thing.
P
Is there a homeopathic remedy for this? My dog is ok but does not allow me apply cream or ointment.
ARNICA 30c -200c --for hematoma and bruising. Likely best is first few hours of injury.
@@izekman33 -Thank you. Will look at it
How to Heal a Hematoma in a Dog's Ear.. go to vet. . . . .
I drained it 3 times already. It still comes back. My dog is getting pissed lol. I don’t want to go to the vet because they rape my wallet every time I go.
And according to my research, there is NO guarantee from the vet surgery either. I didn't drain it, I let the body reabsorb the blood as I had read because yes, it will keep filling
how is the dog now?
@@rebeccamoreno7811 He is fine... the affected ear is now not as erect as the other and that one portions is not soft. But he fully recovered.
@@michaeloliver6745 well thats good to hear,, hope your dog is doing well 👍

Let me save your time: apple vinegar with water...
??
Wouldnt that burn the dog?
Why do people keep pushing Apple Cider Vinegar as some miracle cure it all? ACV very acidic in comparison to dog skin and can cause burns. At the very least, balance the PH with Baking Soda and make sure you use some kind of tool to control for the right PH which should be around 7-7.5 for dog skin.
