Moist or exudative dermatitis usually indicates skin inflammation with
exudation. [[Bacterial Skin Infections - Donkey|Primary or secondary bacterial]] and [[Fungal Skin Infections - Donkey|fungal skin diseases]] are the most frequent cause, but some [[Immunological Skin Disorders - Donkey|immune-mediated inflammatory skin disease]] can be responsible. While the exudate remains moist, the hair mats
significantly (and may shed either spontaneously or with gentle pulling) but,
as the exudate dries out, [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|crusting]] develops. This needs to be differentiated
from [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|scaling]] (see below). Crusting can be difficult to dislodge and the donkey
may resent attempts to pull the crusts off.
