If your pet is starting to show signs of arthritis, it's essential to start treatment early. Arthritis can cause a lot of pain and discomfort for pets and if left untreated, it can get worse over time. Veterinarians recommend starting treatment as soon as possible to improve your pet's quality of life. Parkway Animal Hospital in Grand Prairie is a full-service animal hospital that offers early intervention for pet arthritis. Dr. Nelson uses the latest diagnostic and treatment technologies to provide the best care for your pet. Let’s look at some of the benefits of starting treatment early.
Arthritis is a degenerative disease, which means it gets worse over time. The sooner you start treatment, the better chance you have of slowing the progression of the disease and keeping your pet comfortable. This is especially important as your pet gets older and arthritis can start to impact their quality of life.
Arthritis can be very painful for pets, and make it difficult for them to move around. Starting treatment early can improve your pet's quality of life by reducing their pain and making it easier for them to move. This can help them stay active and enjoy their favorite activities for longer. In addition, early intervention can also help prevent weight gain, which can often make arthritis worse.
Untreated arthritis can lead to other health problems in your pet. For example, obesity can make arthritis worse and lead to other health issues such as diabetes. Untreated pain can lead to behavioral problems such as aggression. Early intervention can help prevent these problems from developing or becoming worse.
If you think your pet may be showing signs of arthritis, it's important to have them seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible.
