| Disease Symptoms / Clinical Signs |
The rumen is usually full, firm, and doughy. Primary contractions are decreased in rate or absent, but secondary contractions may be present although usually decreased in strength. Temperature, pulse, and respiration are normal. The feces are normal to firm in consistency but reduced in amount. |
| Disease Description |
The simple accumulation of excessive quantitiesof relatively indigestible feed may physically impair rumen function for 24-48 hr. The disease is common in hand-fed dairy and beef cattle and rarely seen in sheep |

| Procedure of Use |
Farmer Shantilal Punabhai Mal treat indigestion by using bitter cucumber (Cucumis callosus). To relieve the animal, they take a handful of dried slices of bitter cucumber (Cucumis callosus) and grind them. They boil the powder in roughly two glasses of water. When the liquid is lukewarm, it is fed through a bottle or drencher. Indigestion is cured in two days. |
| Etiology Causative Agent |
1) Sudden ingestion of excessive quantities of highly palatable feeds such as corn or grasssilage or excessive quantities of relatively indigestible, poor-quality roughage during winter. 2) During drought, cattle and sheep may be forced to eat large quantities of poor-quality straw,bedding, or scrub. |
| Global Context |
Administration of ~20 L of warm water or saline via a stomach tube, followed by vigorous kneading of the rumen, may help restore rumen function in adult cattle. |
