    ABSTRACT: The common diseases of cattle and sheep were systematically analyzed, and the corresponding treatment measures were put forward to reduce the loss of breeding and improve economic benefits.


    Poisoning or burns

    Because of eating poisonous herbs by mistake, diseased cattle and sheep will produce symptoms such as foaming at the mouth, restlessness, cyanosis at the mouth and nose, shortness of breath and so on. Egg white, sheep and cattle can be administered with 5 eggs and 8 cattle. At the same time, atropine sulfate can be injected subcutaneously at a dose of 2-5 mg or intravenously after the drug is compatible with glucose. If the diseased animal is poisoned by snake bite, it is necessary to determine the bite site, bind the bite site to avoid the further spread of venom. At the same time, the bite site should be quickly squeezed to discharge venom, and the corresponding serum should be injected as soon as possible.

    Epidemic fever of cattle and rapid epidemic of sheep

    The temperature of diseased cattle rises to 40-42 C. They are depressed, have no appetite and stop ruminating. The conjunctiva of the diseased cattle was flushed and swollen, and secretions and salivation were found in the nose and eyes. Coat rough, arched back, uncoordinated movement, laziness, muscle tremor, shortness of breath. It can be taken orally with purple Hu 40 g, Daqing leaf, Scutellaria baicalensis, Forsythia suspensa 30 g, menthol 25 g, liquorice and jujube 20 g each. If it belongs to gastrointestinal type, Andrographis paniculata and Hulian can be added. In the treatment of Western medicine, chloramphenicol, gentamicin and berberberine can be used. If it belongs to paralysis type, Chuanduan, Achyranthes bidentata and Safflower can be added, and cortisone and sodium salicylate can be used in Western medicine.

Limping cattle with high body temperature can be supplemented with cinnamon, Danpi and gongying. Western medicine can use antibiotics, analgin and compound aminopyrine.

    The disease of sheep fast blight is relatively sudden and has no obvious symptoms. It will die during grazing or in the morning. The main manifestations are sick sheep who do not want to walk, exercise capacity disorder, abdominal circumference significantly swollen, accompanied by abdominal pain, diarrhea, convulsion molars, and even lead to coma and hematemesis. Generally speaking, death occurs within hours or even minutes, with a short course of illness [4]. In order to prevent the occurrence of the disease, it is better to feed in house and avoid contact with polluted drinking water and forage. At the same time, we should pay attention to keeping warm and ventilating in the house. Feed replacement should be done step by step to avoid sudden changes. In the treatment of drugs, we need to use 800,000-1.6 million U of penicillin intramuscular injection, the first injection dose doubled, three times a day, for 3-4 days, or oral sulfamidine, the dose is 0.2 g/kg per day, the next day the dose is halved, for 3-4 days.

    enterotoxaemia

    The main manifestation of the disease is sudden death, with a slightly longer course. The sick sheep will show death and coma in convulsion and quiet state. The sick sheep will show neurological symptoms, swimming in limbs, muscle tremor, frequent eye rotation, excessive secretion in the mouth, and will die quickly within 2 to 4 hours. Sulfonamide and antibiotics can be combined with sedation and cardiotonic therapy.
