My dog has had these scabs around her mouth for years, she’s been to the vet a few times but they could never identify what it was so i gave up and started trying things at home. Nothing has made it better, just slowed its progression. Recently things took a turn and it started to slowly spread across more of her face. On one side yesterday, she rubbed the scabs off leaving her skin sensitive and raw. i immediately gave her a bath with an antiseptic and anti fungal shampoo and applied ointment to it and the scabs. I’m honestly just at a loss and in much distress. I’m trying to get her to the vet again but i have no money right now. She’s 16 years old. Please someone help me figure out what this is and how to treat it. This was the best picture i could get as she’s very active and wont sit still.
