thinning skin in dogs cushings or hypothyroidm
A dog with thinning skin is more likely to have Cushing’s disease (hyperadrenocorticism).
Why?
Cushing’s Disease causes catabolic effects on collagen, leading to:
- Thinning of the skin (atrophy).
- Increased susceptibility to bruising.
- Poor wound healing.
In contrast, hypothyroidism is associated with thickened skin, sometimes called “myxedema,” due to mucopolysaccharide accumulation in the dermis. Hypothyroidism more commonly causes alopecia, thinning hair and a dull, dry coat but not thinning skin.
