My rat has an ear infection?

Q: I’m not sure what type of ear infection he’s got (inner, outer, whatever) but he’s had it for a few months and it seems to be getting worse. His obvious symptoms are a greenish/brownish/yellowy discharge coming from his ear that smells really really bad. (Oh, and it’s only his right ear, not both) Also, when I pick him up he seems limp and he hasn’t been acting like the good old Templeton I know and love. He’s over a year old (I’ve had him since July 9 of last year and he was already an adult rat when I got him) and his whiskers are droopy, so I know that he’s getting older and his time to go is coming closer each day, but if possible I’d like to make him happier and healthier.My mother hates rats and we’re broke right now so it would be extremely difficult for me to take him to the vets even if I had the money to pay the bill. I would appreciate it if you would answer these questions for me for the sake of my poor ratty!1. Is it possible for him to get better without medicine from the vet? If so, how? 2. What can I do to make him more comfortable and make it less painful?3. Are there any foods that aid the healing process that are safe for Templeton to eat?Any help or suggestions are really appreciated, please don’t scold me on not taking him to the vet. I know that he can’t help being sick and it’s my responsibility as his human companion to take him to the vet when he’s ill but there is absolutely no way that I can take him right now under my current circumstances. I feel awful about it and that’s why I’m trying to find a way to make him better at home. Thank you for reading & a huge huge huge thank you if you answer – 10 points to most detailed and helpful answer! (:

A: Ear infections need to be treated early with antibiotics. I’m sorry to say it will not go away on it’s own, but will only get worse. If untreated it can cause a severe head tilt and facial paralysis. (droopy wiskers?) I don’t know if you can get it without a script but a combination of amoxicillin and enrofloaxacin should be used with some kind of anti-inflamatory, like a steroid is vital for recovery.See ratfanclub.org Go to RAT INFO and look under respiratory infections…Here is some info…also has dosing instructions. Hope this helps! Antibiotic TreatmentAlthough mycoplasmosis in rats is basically incurable, treatment with antibiotics can help control the damage. Antibiotics are also vital in treating secondary bacterial infections. A head tilt caused by an inner ear infection requires early and aggressive treatment if the symptoms are to be reversed. Since this can also be caused by a secondary bacterial infection, Baytril, chloramphenicol, or gentamicin (always with a penicillin antibiotic) which tend to be effective against most other bacteria as well as mycoplasma, are recommended. Treatment with an anti-inflammatory such as prednisone at 1 mg/lb twice a day or ibuprofen at 60 mg/lb twice a day, along with the antibiotics, is also vital to help reduce inflammation in the inner ear. A head tilt can also be caused by a pituitary tumor or stroke, and in this case the primary treatment is with steroids. But an antibiotic should also be given since steroids depress the immune system, and can also help shrink a tumor. In my experience, the best antibiotics to use against mycoplasma are doxycycline and/or Baytril. These antibiotics can be ordered for birds from Jedd’s Pigeon Supplies (see sources below). For information about mixing and using doxycycline see “Mixing Medications into Liquid” below.Amoxicillin is available as fish capsules in some pet shops and feed stores and by mail order from Jedd’s Pigeon Supplies or Doctors Fosters & Smith (see sources below). Amoxicillin is recommended for an acute infection, a secondary infection, or a possible strep infection. For information about mixing and using amoxicillin see “Mixing Medications into Liquid” below. Other antibiotics that have been successful at treating some secondary infections are trimethoprim-sulpha, cefadroxil, and chloramphenicol. If a particular antibiotic is effective against the infectious organism, you should see an improvement in acute symptoms within 2-3 days, or in chronic symptoms within a week. If you don’t see any improvement within this time, you must try a different antibiotic. When treating a secondary respiratory infection, antibiotics should be continued for at least 2 weeks, or at least a week after all the symptoms disappear to prevent an immediate relapse. Treatment should be reinstated if the symptoms come back. If one antibiotic is no longer effective, try another one. When treating mycoplasma, the minimum length of treatment should be 3 weeks, and 5-6 weeks is probably better in most cases. For some rats, those that have frequent reoccurances of symptoms, it is best to continue treatment for several months, or maybe even the rest of the rat’s life. Remember, mycoplasma is incurable and must be treated aggressively and persistently. Doxycycline and Baytril can be used for long periods of time without any ill effects in most rats.

Have you ever been able to tell that your cell was searching for a signal because YOU FELT PAIN while holding?

Q: I dumbly thought that i was pyshcic for a while until just recently reading the newly placed article about cell phone radiation on th EWG website which scared the ba-jesus out of me, i feel i need to be screened for cancer now, I have been having muscle and joint pains when near or holding or using and not using my cell phone, which i quickly caught onto (when it first started) that when the pain would occur i’d notice that my phone was beeping because it was searching for a signal (low signal indication) some phones give you the option to be alerted when your signal is low and i left mine on to let me know so that i’d know when/if my call was about to drop and lol to let me know if i hung up on someone by accident- how ever..point is….i noticed shortly before the beeping that i’d get a strange arthritis like joint ache even in places where the is “NO” joints, like the center of my hand from palm to back end, like an ache that makes you shake your hand like michael jackson did or like youd do if you just touched something hot to rid the pain, and it would shortly disaper to never return again until the signal was low again, this didn’t happen every “single solitary time” but if it happened it happend only when near my low signal phone or even while on the phone without a low sinal, especially when battery is low or when i’d been on the phone for over an hr. I just learned that when most if not all phones’ signals are low that your phone is preprogramed to increase its signal 3-7X’s normal signal imput/output, which explains “my stupidity” in thinking i was pshycic but i was actually “FEELING” RA-DI-ATION symptoms. I feel like a ass, excuse my french but for my ignoring that; that something was seriously wrong with getting use to bodily pains and aches from my phone. i think there are others out there like me, pleaaaaase speak out to me.I put a cell before my health and i am an average health concious individual, im in some way in and out of touch with my body, so don’t just write me off as this overly sensitive fluke of a person who is able to sense something so odd like feeling the signal loss from her “CELL PHONE?!” im not crazy im afraid but not crazy and i don’t scare easily. why im afraid, : “long story” so you may leave your answer to my question if you don’t want to read a long story about why i felt compelled to write this question: Here goes, im afraid because i have a mildly consistant pain one that mimics the feeling you have right after giving blood or having blood drawn. i have that feeling off and on and it allllll started one day while using my cell for a long time and having to keep switching arms because my ears would ring and ache like an ear infection pain NOTE: i never had an ear problem or infection in my entire life. and i alway keep the volume low because i sleep in the bed with my toddler who was asleep and she would wake up if i or the convo was loud enough to hear,lol but the conversation was so good and i didn’t own a home phone at the time which catered to my being passive about what was taking place. i then noticed my wrist in each hand that was holding the cell would develop instant arthritis-like pain that pierced like invisible swords in various places related to the cell phone places like: eye, ear, wrist, but, inner elbow an sometimes fatigue after extended use and of course headaches that you know you get from excessive cell usage, Note im 27 years old and never had it before, and the pain would almost immediatly fade once i switched hands. i even noticed off subject: that when i’d carry my cell in my jeans back pocket with the key pad locked that my gludious maximus would ache alllll the same but only in the tissue not in any joints. i can not be alone on this…there’s no way but now back to subject after than convo i noticed i needed to rub away some pain that was piercing my left inner elbow, i would wiggle and flail my arm around to shake it off, instinctively i knew that if i giggled it would disapate and it did but then slowly reaproach that same spot , i went to bed anyways only to wake up with the pain pretty much gone but still apparently in existance. and that was hmmm. i’d say months ago and i stillll have it, it’s at it’s minimum and every blue moon when on my phone it magnifies in the same exact spot. 1st i thought what you may think it was because i held my arm in a weird position and that explains the pains but i never ever held my “BUTT” in a weird position so what’s that about, i was either standing or sitting and pain was just as consistant, I’d have to consisously remove my phone, maybe it’s that particular phone you say? well i’ve had more than one phone in the past 2 years and the last phone was worse but because that was a prepaid phone i diddn’t use or need to keep it as frequent as i do this one.i changed jobs and phones and this one is completely nessecarry because now, my phone is my life, i need it to work, parent, be a wife and more, so i
