A 3-year-old Beetal doe with severe pruritus and skin lesions was diagnosed with concurrent psoroptic mange and malasseziosis. The diagnosis was based on the presence of Psoroptes mites and Malassezia organisms in skin scrapings and smears. Treatment included Ivermectin, oxytetracycline, chlorpheniramine, multivitamins, and topical applications, leading to significant improvement and new hair growth after 4 weeks. The study emphasizes the importance of awareness and resources for timely diagnosis and treatment in rural areas.
