Treat Hip Dysplasia in Cats Naturally With Di Gu Pi San

Feline-Hip-Displasia1

The hip joints gradually deteriorate, leading to loss of function in the hips.

Hip dysplasia in cats develops from a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Also, a pattern of inheritance involving multiple genes exists.

Cats affected with hip dysplasia inherit the gene from both parents, even if neither parent shows outward signs of the disease.

Some cat breeds are more likely to carry the genes for hip dysplasia than others.  

Feline hip dysplasia is more common in pure breeds, and more likely in female cats than male cats.

Heavy boned cats like Persians and Maine Coons are more likely to suffer hip dysplasia than other breeds.

Hip dysplasia eventually causes crippling arthritis and joint pain.

Signs of hip dysplasia and joint pain include:

  • A swaying gait, with the rear end moving back and forth
  • “Bunny hopping”, especially upstairs
  • Difficulty getting up
  • Decreased activity
  • Pain and stiffness in the rear end
  • Reluctance to run, climb stairs, jump, or play
  • Standing with back legs unnaturally close together
  • Decreased range of motion of hip joints
  • Loss of muscle mass in back legs
  • Enlargement of front shoulder muscles

Di Gu Pi San: Western Medicine Applications

Luckily, Eastern medicine offers a natural, herbal solution for feline hip dysplasia and joint pain.

Di Gu Pi San is a TCVM (Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine) blend of 12 different herbs.

Even though Di Gu Pi San is a TCVM herbal blend, it still helps symptoms of some Western diagnoses.

Di Gu Pi San helps cats with the following Western diagnoses:

  • Arthritis
  • Chronic joint pain
  • Degenerative joint disease
  • Hip dysplasia
  • Intervertebral disc disease
  • Rheumatism

Di Gu Pi San: Eastern Medicine Applications

Eastern medicine treats a disease’s root cause(s) rather than symptoms.

Accordingly, TCVM veterinarians evaluate hip dysplasia differently than Western veterinarians.

TCVM vets look for signs of imbalance.

Di Gu Pi San helps cats with the following TCVM signs:

  • Chronic bony bi-syndrome due to Kidney Yin and Qi Deficiency
  • Dry skin and hair coat
  • Preference to cold
  • Red, dry tongue
  • Stiffness that worsens with Heat conditions
  • Thready, weak pulse
