Foul In The Foot

Categories: Diseases and their Remedies

This is caused by hard or irritating substances making their way in

between the claws of the foot, causing inflammation, and sometimes

ulceration, in the parts. The pasterns swell, and the animal becomes

lame.



The foot should be thoroughly washed, and all foreign substances

removed. A pledget of tow, saturated with tar and sprinkled with

powdered sulphate of copper, should be inserted between the claws. This

usually requires but one or two applications.
