Homeopathic veterinary medicine
TREATMENT.—Examine the eye for dirt, hay seed, or other substances, and
when found remove them. Bathe the eye with HUMPHREYS’ MARVEL WITCH
HAZEL, diluted half and half with soft water, morning and night, until
the more violent symptoms are removed. Give, internally, fifteen drops
of A.A. each morning and night.
In long standing cases, a dose of I.I., repeated every few nights, will
be found of great value, while the A.A. is given each morning.
Fits, Convulsions, Epilepsy
The symptoms of fits are pretty well known. Without any or very trifling
warning, the beast staggers and falls suddenly to the ground; he often
bellows in the most alarming manner; then every part of the body is
violently convulsed; the tail is lashed; the teeth are ground; the mouth
closed, and jaws fastened together; the breathing is quick and attended
with heaving at the flanks; frothy saliva dribbles from the mouth, and
the urine and dung are discharged involuntarily. In a few moments the
convulsions become less severe, then cease, and the animal soon seems as
well as if nothing had happened.
Fits are most apt to attack young, vigorous, well fed cattle, or those
that have been much exposed to the direct action of the sun.
TREATMENT.—Little or nothing can be done during an attack; but as one is
likely to be followed by another, the medicine should be given as soon
as the attack is well over.
Give, immediately after the attack, twenty drops of the A.A., and repeat
the remedy morning and night for some days.
If an animal is subject to these fits (epilepsy), returning at intervals
of a few days or weeks, give, alternately, at intervals of six or eight
days, twenty drops of A.A., and J.K., and continue these for some time.
Foul in the Foot, Foot-rot
Usually comes from standing on a filthy floor, but may follow an injury
or tuberculosis.
There is lameness and swelling of the pasterns, and heat, with evident
pain; matter then forms, and unless it is let out, it will extend in all
directions under the foot, and appear at the coronet or top of the hoof;
and from this long, narrow ulcers remain, and proud flesh springs up
from the diseased places.
