Urination may drop to a trickle. As informed by the farmer, take one fruit of "beejora" (Citrus medica), which is cut and extract is obtained. As a remedy, 250 ml of extract is drenched to the affected bullock twice a day for four days. Thus, this treatment facilitates urination in bullock. Apart from this method, 2 to 3 sea shells / cowrie thats available near the sea shore (used for playing chess and "chokad") are roasted and then crushed into the powder. This powder is mixed with the cattle feed and fed to the affected animal twice a day for three days. As a result, it will release the urine and bullock is cured of the problem.
