Procedure of Use When an animal is inflicted with a deep wound, it becomes restless and stops taking fodder and drink. It is not inclined to work. For treatment, Badubhai Panith uses tanner cassia (Cassia auriculata) leaves and "dodva" herb. He says when tanner cassia leaves and dodva are ground and the paste is applied to the wound, it gives immediate relief to the animal. This paste is applied twice a day for two days. It gives immediate relief and cures the deep wound. This method is traditional. Badubhai learnt of it from his relatives. Many farmers in Bhavnagar district use this method.
