Symptoms, Prevention and treatment of Rumen accumulation in cattle

The rumen accumulated food of cattle is the rough feeding of excessive rumen stagnation, which enlarges the rumen body, makes the rumen unable to digest and absorb normally, and leads to the disorder of digestion and motility. The disease is common in standardized and whole-house farms. So what are the symptoms of rumen accumulation in cattle? How to prevent and cure it? Let's take a look at the detailed introduction of the pro-agricultural network.

1. Symptoms

There are two causes of rumen accumulation in cattle, one is overeating, the other is stomach heat type, so their symptoms are also different. The incidence of rumen accumulated food of overeating injury type cattle is more urgent, at the initial stage of the disease, the spirit of cattle is depressed, feeding and ruminating weakens or stops, the left abdomen is swollen, the pressing feels hard, the defecation of diseased cattle is difficult, the stool is black and smelly, and the rumen peristaltic sound of auscultation weakens or disappears, shortness of breath, painful groans, and even coma when the disease is serious. On the other hand, the initial symptoms of rumen accumulation of stomach-hot cattle are similar to those of stomach injury caused by overeating, which is also reduced or stopped, left abdomen dilated, touch pressure hard, stomach peristalsis reduced or no peristaltic sound during auscultation, cattle often feel uneasy and walk around. When seriously ill, stand on your back, limbs tremble, and some will have diarrhea.

2. Preventive methods

In order to strengthen the feeding management, the feed must be fixed at a fixed time. With the appropriate increase of feed in the growth stage of the cow, it is necessary to add a small amount of feed frequently to prevent the cattle from overeating, and to keep feeding at the same time. If the feeding time is late one day, the cow will eat a large amount of feed, but it can not be digested for a while, resulting in accumulated food. In addition, when changing the feed, it must be changed slowly. If the feed is changed suddenly, the cow is not suitable for the new feed and is stimulated and cannot be digested normally.

3. Treatment methods

There are many treatments, including artificial assistance, medicine, surgery and so on. Let's take a look.

Massage therapy: gently massage the rumen with your hand in the left abdomen of the cow, massage for 5-10 minutes every time, every half an hour, and give the cow a large amount of warm water during massage, the effect is better, this method is suitable for mild illness.

Diarrhea treatment: with 1 jin of magnesium sulfate or sodium sulfate, add 1 liter of water, in the addition of 1 liter of vegetable oil, to cattle, can speed up the rumen excretion of accumulated food.

Promoting peristalsis therapy: when cattle accumulate food, the rumen peristalsis is reduced or slow, this method is to promote rumen peristalsis, speed up digestion and absorption, can use 10% hypertonic sodium chloride 30000ml, intravenous injection, can stimulate rumen peristalsis.

Gastric lavage therapy: choose a plastic tube with a diameter of 4-5cm and a length of 3 meters, insert it from the cow's mouth, directly into the rumen, and pump it back and forth to stimulate rumen contraction, so that the liquid in the rumen is produced. If you can't have an abortion, you can inject a lot of warm water into the mouth on this side of the mouth, and then suck out the liquid with tools, so that you can empty the contents of the rumen several times.
