I'm so glad to hear his nose is doing better! and that is a great idea about the washcloth! It already looks much better to me.

Well there's been a set back I'm hoping it's just a reaction to 4 weeks of Tinactin twice a day. There's a sharp edged groove in his nose that goes slightly into the good section of his nose. He also has a discoloration on the top of his snout. It might be that the Tinactin got onto good areas and that's why this has happened I've stopped the Tinactin and called my vet. He's still on the oral anti fungal so hopefully that will be enough to combat this

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully it's just from the topical meds and will clear right up now that you've stopped it. Please keep us informed!

Thanks Audrey Thankfully he doesn't seem bothered by his nose at all. He never touches or scratches it. I recently contacted one of my previous vets whose opinion I really value and asked her what she thought of his nose based on the photos. She recommends getting a biopsy. If it turns out to indeed be a fungal infection she recommended a stronger anti-fungal medicine. And of course don't use Tinactin again. I believe what happened is the Tinactin burned his nose He's going back to the vet tomorrow
