Скачать или смотреть Possible caseous lymphadenitis in a goat

Caseous lymphadenitis (CL) is quite a common disease in sheep and goats. We have not ever actually sent away samples for an official diagnosis in our goats. This is presenting as a fairly classic case with the location likely in the lymph nodes.
This one is looking quite painful so we decided to speed the process of bursting and healing.

We don’t give systemic antibiotics because abscesses are usually well sealed off from the rest of the body. She appears healthy other than the abscess.

We do vaccinate for it with Ganvac 6.
