I noticed a spot in the front of my 9 year old German Shepard's elbow that almost looks like black dots just under her skin and it is bald. I can't get into the vet for a bit. I have Baxedin that I have been using to clean it, but I was wondering if using Fucidin cream would be an appropriate topical ointment and possibly maybe help? It doesn't seem to be itchy for her or anything...any ideas?

Are they definately under her skin? I know when dogs have fleas they get little dots on their skin, which is actually flea poo. If you rub with a wet paper towel donthey come off? Maybe the hair loss is due to her scratching. A vet would be able to confirm diagnoses, and maybe do a skin scraping to see if it's another parasite. Does the area look sore at all?

If it doesn't go in a few days, I wouldn't put off seeing the vet.
My last dog had something similar and it was skin cancer.
Are the spots raised?
