HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT OF TEAT FIBROSIS IN DAIRY CATTLE
INTRODUCTION
Teat fibrosis, a common sequel of mastitis develops so gradually that it may escape observation until most of the secretary tissues are destroyed. Fibrosis may be diffused, involving whole quarter or local varying in size from pea like lesion to bigger masses near the base or tip of the teat (Blood et al 2006). Fibrosed mastitic cows do not usually respond to conventional antibiotic therapy and the affected quarter is ultimately rendered non functional resulting in a considerable economic loss to cattle owners.
oral administration of Homeopathic medicines, Silicea 200C and Calcaria Flour 200 C for a period of 20 to 40 days in dairy cows affected with mastitis having symptoms of fibrosis in udder shows very good result in restoring it in normal condition.
2ml of Calcaria Flour-200C in 100 ml of Luke warm water is administered orally thrice a day to each animal. Silicea -200C is also administered in same dose and route keeping a time gap of half an hour between two administrations treatment regime is continued for 40 days .
Calcaria flour is known for its ability to eliminate fibrosis (Edwad, 2002). Silicea stimulates expulsion of foreign body from tissues in chronic low grade inflammatory lesions (Day, 1992) (Shah, 2003). Calcaria flour and Silicea was found highly effective in chronic cases of fibrosed mastitis by Upadhyay et al., 1995; Upadyay and Sharma, 1999 and Singh et al. 2006. In light of these reports and present observation it can be inferred that combination of homeopathic medicines, Silicea and Calcaria flour can be effectively used in the treatment of fibrosed mastitis in cows. Although the course of treatment is protracted yet it is safe and cost effective.
