Cattle may get injured by piercing or goading or by being stamped by another cow. In such cases, sometimes the flow of blood does not stop. According to information given by Chatrasinh, 250 grams of oil is to be heated and human hair is to be put into it. After it has been well heated, cool it down and apply it on the injured part of the tail and bandage the same.
Livestock often get their tail injured while they are goaded during work by twisting the tail. Sometimes other animals bite and injure the tail. When the bleeding from such injuries does not stop, it may lead to severe complications. Durbar uses a traditional method to arrest the haemorrhage by applying an oil treated with human hair over the wound.
Heat 250 millilitres of vegetable oil, of castor, coconut, cottonseed or mustard, in a pan. Add a few strands of human hair in the oil and let the hairs soak in hot oil for sufficiently long time. Then cool to room temperature and store in a clean glass bottle. Apply the oil copiously over the tail wound bandage it. The bleeding stops and the wound is healed within a few days. |
