Causes of red and swollen toes in dogs:

1. When the dog's immunity is weak or the soles of the feet are injured, the dog is prone to bacterial infection, causing dog interdactylitis.

2. If the dog is injured by sharp objects, if the dog is not found and treated and disinfected in time, it will easily cause interdactylitis.

3. Failure to wipe the dog's feet after walking the dog home resulted in a lot of stains on the feet and inflammation.

4. The hair on the dog's nails or paws has not been trimmed for a long time, which will provide a living environment for bacteria, especially when it is humid and hot in summer, it is more suitable for bacteria to multiply, which may easily lead to interdactylitis in dogs.

5. If the owner does not help the dog to dry the soles of the dog in time after bathing the dog, it is also easy to get interdactylitis.

Solutions for red and swollen toes in dogs:

1. First, shave off the hair around the toes to facilitate the application of medicine, then clean the affected area with normal saline, dry it with gauze, apply anti-inflammatory ointment, and then bandage it once a day.

2. If the dog's toes are red and swollen, it is necessary to cooperate with systemic anti-inflammatory drugs, such as oral anti-inflammatory drugs or injections.

3. If it is caused by bacterial infection, the dog should be disinfected and cleaned at the infected area, and antibacterial drugs should be given to the dog in time.

4. If it is caused by stains on the soles of the dogs, clean the dogs in time when the soles of the dogs are dirty.
