๐พ Please meet Niall, a brave 9-year-old dog with Chronic Perineal Hernia. ๐ถ๐
Niall was brought to GoodHeart Veterinary Clinic because he was not eating, had no stool output, and had reduced urine output. During physical examination, we observed a large protruding swelling in the perineal area, which raised concern for a possible mass or perineal hernia.
To properly evaluate Niallโs condition, we performed an X-ray to help distinguish whether the swelling was a mass or a hernia. The results confirmed that Niall was suffering from a Perineal Hernia.
Before proceeding with surgery, we also performed important pre-operative tests, including:
โ
Complete Blood Count
โ
Blood Chemistry
โ
cNT-proBNP cardiac screening
These tests helped us assess Niallโs overall health and make sure he was fit and safer for anesthesia and surgery.
After careful evaluation, Niall underwent Perineal Hernia Repair Surgery.
One week after the procedure, Niall showed great improvement. He was already:
โ
Eating well
โ
Passing stool normally
โ
Urinating better
โ
Healing well from the surgical wound
Today, Niall is living more comfortably, happily, and with a much better quality of life. ๐๐พ
๐ Educational Reminder:
Perineal hernia is commonly seen in older male dogs. Signs may include swelling near the a**s, difficulty defecating, constipation, straining, reduced appetite, and difficulty urinating. If left untreated, it may become painful and may lead to serious complications.
Early consultation, proper diagnostics, and timely treatment can make a big difference.
