Abstract
Aural hematoma is mostly managed by surgical intervention and chances of recurrences are quite common. Therefore, finding alternative therapies for clinical management is the need of hour. The objective of this study is to report successful management of aural hematoma in a 13-year-old Labrador male dog by use of homeopathic medicines viz. Arnica montana 6C and Hamamelis virginiana 200C. The animal revealed a favourable response by 14th day of the treatment and complete resolution was observed on 28th day. This therapeutic protocol used was conclusive and it reestablished the normal shape of external ear with no deformities post-treatment. Hence, homeopathic treatment can be considered as an alternative therapy for clinical management of aural hematoma in canine patients.
