Re: ear flap haematomas

[Val]

Usually a dog will get an ear hematomas from shakng its head or scratching its ear because it has an underlying ear problem The scratching or shaking of the ear ruptuers the tiny blood vessels in the ear’s cartilage causing them to bleed under the skin of the ear flap forming a pocket of blood
They sometimes heal on there own sometimes the vet will drain them.
They sometimes are bad enough that the ear suffers a deformity
