Methods for the treatment of leprosy in young pigs
In veterinary clinical practice, we often encounter some 2-4-month-old young pigs whose skin is covered with brown crusts, showing symptoms such as mental dementia, loss of appetite, growth stagnation and so on. It is customary for the masses to call it a "pig mangy".
The causes of leprosy in young pigs are as follows:
First, caused by parasitic mites.
Second, young pigs lack nicotinamide in B vitamins. Nicotinamide is an indispensable component of coenzyme in animal metabolism. In other words, nicotinamide can help keep an animal's metabolism normal. The results show that certain amino acids, such as tryptophan, can be converted into nicotinamide in animals. Therefore, providing feed rich in tryptophan to young pigs can also prevent the occurrence of leprosy.
Third, it is reported that zinc deficiency in young pigs can also show symptoms similar to leprosy, which is called skin keratosis of young pigs in veterinary clinic, and the whole body of young pigs is also covered with gray crusts.
To find out the cause of leprosy in young pigs, it is necessary to treat the disease.
When diagnosed with nicotinamide deficiency, young pigs can be given nicotinamide tablets. Each pig takes 30mg to 50mg each time. Three times a day for 10 days as a course of treatment. At the same time, the feed is adjusted to provide feed rich in tryptophan.
When it is diagnosed that the leprosy of young pigs is caused by the lack of trace element zinc, it can be mixed with 0.5 grams of zinc sulfate per kilogram of feed, 10 days as a course of treatment, generally within a course of treatment.
Caused by parasitic mites, it has to be solved through deworming.

Common mistakes in the use of drugs in chickens
(1) blindly increase the dosage: most farmers think that the greater the dosage, the better the therapeutic effect, and blindly use large doses when using antibiotics. The use of large doses of drugs, some may have a certain effect at that time, but left hidden dangers. ① causes poisoning death or chronic drug accumulation in broilers, resulting in damage to liver and kidney function. The function of liver and kidney is impaired, and the detoxification function of broilers is decreased, so it is difficult to use drugs to treat and prevent diseases. ② killed the beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract, destroyed the balance of normal intestinal flora, and caused metabolic disorders in broilers.

Prevention of porcine erysipelas
(1) eliminate the source of the disease: the pigsty is often disinfected regularly with 10% stone from the milk, at least 2-3 times a year. (2) eliminating transmission factors: the disease in many pig farms is caused by buying pork from outsources. therefore, self-breeding is the key to prevent porcine erysipelas. (3) to improve the resistance to pig disease: as long as pigs are properly fed and managed, fed more green feed, exercised properly, padded sheds are raised every day, the health status of pigs is checked every day, and diseased pigs are isolated and treated in time.
