Homeopathic veterinary medicine
CAUSE.—The disease is chiefly developed in low districts, and after damp
seasons. The worms are taken in with the food and developed in the
liver.
SYMPTOMS.—Depression, sadness, inertness, loss of appetite; watery, red,
yellowish, purulent eyes; yellowish tint of all parts not covered with
hair; fœtid smell of nose and mouth; hard skin; dull, erect hair;
irregularity of excrement, which is white, watery and fœtid.
TREATMENT.—The principal remedies are A. A., at first, and then, after a
day, alternate C. C., with the A. A., a dose once in three or four
hours.
CHAPTER IV.—PART II.
DISEASES OF THE URINARY AND REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEMS
Suppressed or Scanty Urination
This is usually the result of some disease of the kidneys, or a mere
symptom of other morbid condition, or it may arise from a paralytic
condition of the bladder itself. This condition will generally be
promptly relieved by giving a few doses of H. H., twenty drops, at
intervals of four, six or twelve hours, according to the urgency of the
case.
Inflammation of the Kidneys, Nephritis
This disease has many symptoms in common with cystitis, or inflammation
of the bladder, and its treatment scarcely differs. It occasionally
occurs in cattle, and may be excited by blows upon the loins, calculi,
or small stones formed in the kidneys, or by eating poisonous plants, or
the use of strong allopathic medicines.
SYMPTOMS.—The animal brings the fore legs together, bends the back
downward, and presses with pain when endeavoring to pass water; the
loins are hot, more so than the remainder of the body, sometimes even
burning. The rectum is hot, dung scanty and passed with pain. There is a
great desire to pass water, but only a few drops escape, which is at
first limpid, then thick, and of a deep red color. The gait is stiff,
appetite gone, no rumination, but great thirst.
TREATMENT.—Give H. H., a dose of twenty drops, every two, three or four
hours, according to the intensity of the disease.
Inflammation of the Bladder, Cystitis
This disease is not so common in cattle as in horses, but may be
occasioned by cold or injuries in the region of the loins. It is
manifested by the following.—
SYMPTOMS.—The animal constantly keeps the back arched; the walk is
stiff, and the animal, when standing, leans against something on one
side or the other; frequent effort to pass water, but to little purpose,
as only a small quantity, of deep red color, is passed at a time. The
bowels are bound, evacuations scanty and passed with pain. There is no
appetite or rumination, but intense thirst; the eyes are prominent, and
the countenance evinces great distress.
TREATMENT.—The H.H., will be found perfectly appropriate, and may be
repeated, in doses of twenty drops, every three or four hours, until
entire relief is experienced.
