Within 3 days or 7 days, and the sooner the better. Myelitis generally refers to acute myelitis, also known as acute transverse myelitis, which is an immune and inflammatory disease involving the spinal cord, which may be induced by viral infection and autoimmune dysfunction.

Treatment for myelitis in dogs

1. In the early stage, glucocorticoids can be used to promote the digestion and absorption of inflammation, which is beneficial to the recovery of the disease.

2. If the patient's condition is serious, high-dose methylprednisolone pulse therapy can be used, usually for 3-5 consecutive days.

3. After the condition is mastered, it may be selected for treatment, and immunoglobulin can also be used at the same time, usually for 5 consecutive days.

4. Antibiotics can be used to prevent respiratory infections and urinary system infections.

5. At the same time, B vitamins can be used for nutritional nerve therapy. Commonly used drugs include vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, methylcobalamin, etc., and vasodilator drugs can also be used.

6. Usually, be careful not to let the dog exercise violently, try not to jump from a high place, and usually hold the dog back and forth together, flat up and down, so as not to hurt the dog's spine.
