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.
