Blue Power
Ear Treatment"
INGREDIENTS:
16 Oz. Isopropyl Alcohol
4 Tablespoons Boric Acid Powder
16 Drops Gentian Violet Solution 1%
Mix together in alcohol bottle and shake well.
You will also need to shake solution every time you use it to
disperse the Boric Acid Powder. To use, purchase the "Clairol"
type plastic squirt bottle to dispense solution to affected
ears.
TREATMENT: Evaluate condition of ears before
treating and if very inflamed and sore do not attempt to pull
hair or clean out ear at all. Wait until inflammation has
subsided which will be about 2 days. Shake the bottle each time
before using. Flood the ear with solution (gently squirt
bottle), massage gently to the count of 60, wipe with a tissue.
Flood again on first treatment, wipe with a tissue, and leave
alone without massage. The dog will shake out the excess which
can be wiped with a tissue, the Gentian Violet does stain
fabrics.
SCHEDULE of treatment is as follows:
Treat 2x per day for the first week to two weeks depending upon
severity of ears.
Treat 1x per day for the next 1-2 weeks.
Treat 1x per month (or even less frequently, depending on the
dog.
All of these ingredients should be available at
a pharmacy. You will find that despite the alcohol, the dog will
not object to even the first treatment. The Boric Acid Powder
soothes the ear. The Gentian Violet solution is an
anti-infection agent. The solution appears to work well on any
and all ear problems from mites to wax to canker. After the 2nd
or 3rd day you can clean out the ear with a Q-tip or cotton
balls.
The Success Rate for this treatment is 95-99%.
Those who do not succeed have usually not done
the treatment long enough or have not been regular about it.
Dogs on the verge of ear canal surgery have been
returned to normal with only the regular follow-up treatment to
keep the ear healthy. If an infection seems to persist in the
treated ear after the above course of treatment, you may also
have some bacteria in the site. This can be eradicated by using
a gentle flush of raw apple cider vinegar and water (warm). Use
2 Tablespoons of vinegar to one cup of water, 2 times per week.
