Analysis suggests that anal furunculosis lesions develop due to a lack of some of the immune system\u2019s defences that would usually protect the intestines and perineal skin from the bacteria normally present in that area. A separate part of the immune system is then exposed to more bacteria than normal and becomes over-activated. This over-activation of certain components of the immune system leads to marked inflammation and ulceration of the local area.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cd1b402 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cd1b402\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8735a9c\" data-id=\"8735a9c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b93425 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2b93425\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"210\" height=\"210\" src=\"http:\/\/79.170.43.200\/chameleontesting.co.uk\/willowsoldsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Asset-5.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-863\" alt=\"willows-dog-cat-icon\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"http:\/\/79.170.43.200\/chameleontesting.co.uk\/willowsoldsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Asset-5.png 210w, http:\/\/79.170.43.200\/chameleontesting.co.uk\/willowsoldsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Asset-5-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 210px) 100vw, 210px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a179dfd\" data-id=\"a179dfd\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-725a80a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"725a80a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\tHow is Anal Furunculosis Diagnosed?\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9eaf329 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9eaf329\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-40f650d\" data-id=\"40f650d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7355275\" data-id=\"7355275\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ad7cd13 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ad7cd13\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Anal furunculosis is usually diagnosed by clinical examination.

Drug therapy usually lasts from 4-24 weeks with most patients responding within 12 weeks. Up to 85% of patients go into complete remission (lesions disappear) using medical therapy, however, approximately 40% of these cases can suffer recurrence of the disease. If recurrence occurs it usually does so within six to eight months after treatment is stopped. Patients suffering from recurrence often respond to additional courses of medical therapy. Approximately 4% of cases do not significantly improve with medical therapy.<br \/><br \/>Surgery is generally reserved for cases that continue to suffer from lesions despite medical therapy or those with frequent recurrences. Surgery is performed once the lesions are small enough to avoid the need for reconstructive skin closure techniques (plastic surgery). The success rates after surgery vary, however recent work suggests that in appropriately managed cases, 90% of dogs are cured.
