April 25, 2014.  A 7-year-old male not neutered Maltese comes to Toa Payoh Vets.

Chronic Otitis Externa is shown by black pigmentation of the ear canals. However, the owner's complaint is perineal hernias. I advised surgical repair of both the left and right perineal hernia.

To differentiate hernia from tumour, a hernia can be pushed inwards and the swelling disappears.
