Hey! You could try bathing him in a medicated shampoo such as Zymox! If his skin doesn't improve, you might have to find a dermatologist in your area to get him checked out! You also should get a larger e-collar for him to wear if he is still able to lick at his leg with the one he has. -Dr. Lindsay Butzer https://www.1800petmeds.com/zymox+advanced+enzymatic+shampoo-prod13213.html

Hey! There are a lot of reasons dogs get itchy! It definitely is possible that your dog is sensitive to the antibiotic that he is on! Once he is finished with his prescription, keep a close eye on his skin to see if it is improving. You could try bathing him in an aloe and oatmeal shampoo and applying a topical hydrocortisone spray to see if that helps. There is always the possibility that this is an allergy to something else such as a grass. In which case, his vet might recommend starting him on an allergy medication such as Apoquel if it is really bad! -Dr. Lindsay Butzer
