| Disease Description |
In diarrhoea, the intestine fails to adequately absorb fluids, and/or secretion into the intestine is increased. Loss of fluids through diarrhoea produces dehydration and the loss of certain body salts. Diarrhoea causes a change in body tissue composition and severe depression in the animal. |
| Disease Control |
Depending on the cause of diarrhoea, treatment options may include responsible use of antibiotics or anthelminthics, anti-inflammatories, rehydration fluids, vaccination, mineral supplementation and ration management. Note that antibiotics are only useful if the cause is a bacterial infection. |
| Disease Prevention |
Prevention. Identifying the cause of diarrhoea in the herd will allow you to make a sound plan about how to prevent or minimise the effect. This can include reviewing rations, grazing plans, worm management and biosecurity practices. |

| Procedure of Use |
In case of cold, there will be continuous flow of fluids from the nose of the animal. Water oozes from its eyes, the body remains cool and the animal become restless. It avoids feeding and stops rumination. The animal head tends to droop onto the shoulders and its coughing is continuous. Cows and buffalos catch cold during the calving stage.
Satish Kumar Chauhan uses the gum, known as "guggul" that oozes from the (Gardenia turgida) plant, to rid the animals of cold. He takes 10 to 15 gram of the "guggul" gum in a pan and puts it on burning coals to produce smoke. The pan is put under the nose of the animal so it inhales and is exposed to the "guggul" smoke. The animal inhales the smoke and is rid of cold within two to three hours. The first sign that the animal has come out of cold is that it starts feeding.
"Guggul" tree grows in the forests and hilly areas, and its gum has medicinal and religious uses.
The innovator has acquired the knowledge from his mother. Once his mother had tried the method on a buffalo and it got rid of cold. |
| Etiology Causative Agent |
Infectious causes include: worms. viruses (e.g. bovine viral diarrhoea virus) bacteria (e.g. Salmonella or Yersinia - see the Bacterial diarrhoea heading below) |
| Global Context |
Spread world wide |
| Lesson Implication |
Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is most common in young cattle (6–24 mo old). ... distinguished from other viral diseases that produce diarrhea and mucosal lesions. |
