4543. VET CASES - How to save money on hamster tumours?

How to save money on hamster tumours?
Dr Sing Kong Yuen, BVMS (Glasgow)
5 Jan 2023.

Hamsters over one year old may develop tumours on any part of the body. Two examples are shown in the merged video of two cases.


1.  CASE 1. MAR 2022. EAR TUMOUR
Large ulcerated and infected bleeding ear tumour.  Video 00:00 - 00:49.
The owner waited till the tumour became large, painful, itchy and bleeding. He consulted me.
Surgery would be more costly owing to the longer time taken to operate.

2. CASE 2. JAN 2023. CHEST TUMOUR/ABSCESS

He WhatsApp to me today and sent a video.        Video 00:49 to end of video

'Hi, my hamster have this lump underneath her right front leg.. could you advice what can we do now? It’s also starting to smell and have some discharge."

MY REPLY:
The hamster needs to be examined and possibly an operation by your vet to remove the lump. 

------------------------

 Anaesthesia and surgery of tumours are considered costly, but the fees are much lower if the owner gets the tumour of less than 5 mm across removed. Most owners wait and see. The scratching of the tumour leads to bleeding and emission of foul smells. It is best to get the tumour removed by your vet when they are small.

4542. Follow up on red-eared slider with swollen eyes and not eating for many days in Apr 2022

Veterinary Case Study - Swollen eyes and not eating red-eared slider.
Dr Sing Kong Yuen
4 Jan 2023.

APRIL 2022.
THE SWOLLEN-EYED RED-EARED SLIDER STOPS EATING
Red-eared slider had swollen eyes and no appetite for many days.
1.  Treated by Dr Sing Kong Yuen at Toa Payoh Vets.
2.  Dr Sing advised a GOOD HOUSING ENVIRONMENT for the two red-eared sliders to prevent recurrences of swollen eyes and loss of appetite.

INFORMATION on history, diagnosis and treatment at:
https://2010vets.blogspot.com/2022/05/4045-anxious-owner-young-red-eared.html

This includes:
2.1  More spaces to swim. The owner bought a bigger tank
2.2  More space to bask. The owner bought the white plastic basking platform. It replaces the small crammed floating object you would see in the blog.
2.3 UV lights placed above the basking platform in the daytime.
2.4 A good water filter and filtration pump. You can see the water has air bubbles and is clearer.

3.  The lady owner bought the above-mentioned items online from China. It cost her a lot of money. The eldest daughter's pets were now her responsibility. Hence she consulted me at Toa Payoh Vets in April 2022.
 

JANUARY 2023 (VideoRES 2/2). 
No health issues since installation of the above-mentioned items from China. This video best explains the
good housing environment as opposed to text.

ADVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE - CREATE more, consume less.

Instead of submitting a photo of yellow flowers which is quite common in stock photography, I create an inspirational electronic card for sale at
www.shutterstock.com. 

Photo of yellow flower taken during my 2013 travel on the way to Paris. Sun rays fell onto this roadside flower. Fellow packaged tour companions will wander around and have a coffee.

I looked for scenes to photograph. Sunshine. I took 2 shots. Only 1 is sharp. In old days, I use inexpensive Canon 40D camera.

Today on 4 Jan 2023, I reviewed my travel photos. 99% are of poor quality! I did not learn the techniques as that would involve lots of time. Use Canon camera. "P" Mode. Focus on flower and shoot!

4532. LOL meaning in chat

LOL is appropriate for casual conversations online or in text messages. Use this abbreviation when you find something funny. Even if you just smile or giggle, you can still use LOL. Nobody expects you to laugh out loud when you say LOL, but it's okay if you do.
