ONDAMED Animal Case Study and treatment on a Sheep
Fly strike
๐๐๐๐๐๐
A sheep with fly-strike. This is a condition caused by flies depositing their eggs under the skin of a weakened animal and the maggots eat the animal alive. The animal
went down,stopped eating and drinking. The owner and breeder picked out maggots for three full hours causing much pain and leaving open sores. She was treating for pain, banderol and a zinc paste to cover gaping wounds. The animal could not stand up and hung her head. The animal was too sick to run a pulse so I ran a pre-set program with ONDAMED for antistress, then the pain program twice. Once completed ran the joy of life.This was late morning. By 6pm the animal was standing and pushing her hay around with her nose but she was drinking. By 9pm the sheep was eating. The next morning I returned and took the animals pulse and ran the anti stress program then tissue regeneration. Skin with wool was black and fell off but in 1 and a 1/2 weeks she looked great.Healed very well. There was no need for my return.
