| Disease Symptoms / Clinical Signs |
|
| Disease Description |
The difficult or incomplete passage of dry hardened faeces. Faeces becomes harder, drier and more difficult to pass the longer it stays in the colon. This may occur in animals suffering reduced water intake, temporary food deprivation, environmental or social stress making them reluctant to defecate, disrupted dietary and management routines, or painful pelvic disease. In the export process, the condition is sometimes seen in the first week at sea. It is never life threatening. A typical circumstance where cattle may become constipated is after being fed a diet high in indigestible fibre in assembly points, and then being handled and transported for an extended period when dehydration and stress occur. The cattle do show signs of discomfort and straining.

| Procedure of Use |
"When an animal suffers from retention of urine and constipation, there is inflammation of its urethra. It visibly suffers from severe pain, keeps off feed, lies generally immobile and the hair on its skin straightens. Bullocks will not be inclined to do routine work, which means economic loss to the farmer. To treat the twin condition of retention of urine and constipation, Arjanbhai Rabari takes 100 gram salt, 100 gram onion (Allium cepa) and 500 gram of whey. This solution is drenched twice to the animal. After the first drench itself, the animal shows relief. If needed a second dose is given. Arjanbhai has been practising this method for the last 35 years." |
