Thanks
I don't know whether washing it is likely to help if it doesn't appear clogged. Also I'd be wary that dampness might make any itching or soreness worse. You could try but I think it would be best for him to see a vet, especially if it turns out he has lost weight as that could indicate a wider health issue. A vet might want to try an anti-inflammatory such as Metacam.
