The problem of red and inflamed pet skin and constant itching and scratching is a major concern for pet parents—but the solution is rarely just a quick fix. Dr. Randy Aronson, your holistic integrative veterinarian, explains why your dog's or cat's skin is red and inflamed and why common treatments like antibiotics and steroids may be doing more harm than good to your pet's long-term health. We dive deep into potential root causes, including food sensitivity, environmental allergies (like formaldehyde in carpeting or glyphosate exposure), and the critical role of the pet microbiome and gut health. Learn about the necessary diagnostic steps, such as the VDI allergy and dermatitis test and the Animal Biome test, to find the real cause of the inflammation, which can manifest as hot spots or pododermatitis.

Dr. Randy emphasizes focusing on foundational medicine to get a true diagnosis and avoid the cycle of chronic inflammation. When inflammation is left untreated, it becomes an uphill battle that can lead to a host of other problems. Discover the importance of a thorough physical examination and testing for underlying issues like mites (Demodex or scabies) before resorting to broad-spectrum medications. This episode, co-hosted with Olivia Sacci, is essential for any pet guardian looking to move beyond temporary symptom relief and address the root cause of their pet's chronic skin issues for long-term wellness and longevity.
