Polyfolliculitis – Dr. Lamb Webinar Feb 10
My cockatiel has polyfoliculitis affecting her flight feathers. Is there any treatment available for this?
With polyfolliculitis the current treatment is focused on pain control. If you have a bird with it effecting the flight feathers a vet could possibly attempt a feather ablation surgery in this area but it may not work the way we really want and consultation with an avian vet about whether or not this is a possible option for the individual would be needed.
