    My steer was diagnosed with lumpy jaw and due to my wonderful Vet Dr. Meyer he was cured. Frankie spent a month at the vet's farm and got IV and pills. After 4 years Frankie's teeth have straighten out and he has a beautiful smile. He is my big baby, a 1500-2000lb Holstein and his brother Dino 3,000lb Black Angus. They are my pets and will never be for food. They will live out their life in cow luxury(well the best I can do). Thank you for teaching us about the issues cows have and how to treat them with a smile and love and kindness for the animal.🐄

    I have seen so many vets say lumpy jaw is a death sentence so they put the animal down. I will say it mostly was after the animal had already lost a ton of weight, so I could be wrong that they just diagnosed lumpy jaw and put them down! BUT thank you for showing a different approach and EXPLAINING IT!

    Have you ever heard about a condition which superficially looks like lump(y) jaw (with a unilateral swelling of the mandible), but the main symptom developing several weeks later is a huge lump under the mandible full of saliva (not pus!)? Literally, a hanging bag of saliva?

      Howdy George, I reckon that would be called a sialocele. I’ve seen and managed them on dogs and reckon they do happen in cattle as well. When I’ve suspected it, I’ve aspirated a mix of clear fluid and blood… they have been maybe softball sized, yours sounds crazy! They are probably traumatic in origin. I guess we assume they are the result of a salivary gland duct becoming blocked and dumping into tissue rather than into the mouth. Cheers mate!

    • @georgejohnsmith
      @georgejohnsmith 2 роки тому +9

      @@EnochtheCowVet Thank you very much! That must be it. When I noted the swelling I immediately suspected mechanical trauma (the animal had to push its head between slanted bars during the winter to feed, the swelling occured on the side where the lower edge of the mandible could hit the bars). I think I own the owner a sharp kick into his testicles. He did not want to pay the vet for a proper examination and treatment, he just decided to slaughter the animal. It could have lived otherwise. Thank you once more, I have learnt something important today.

      While it's noticeable after he points it out, imagine looking out at a herd of cattle grazing or a herd of cattle moving quickly as a group. Could you pick it out easily? I'm actually impressed the farmer noticed it at all. Dairy cows come through the parlor twice or three times a day and can be looked over closely frequently. Beef cows, not so much.

      If we catch them early enough, they treatment works. This guy flew under the radar too long. The farmer, (an exceptionally good one), picked him out of the mob as he was starting to slip in condition. But, as you said, it is of the size, we might struggle to get on top of this one.

      Yikes, this could be either a melanoma on a grey horse or a squamous cell carcinoma, regardless I would get a hold of your local vet as soon as possible. There are some therapeutics for both, and some adjunctive therapy to potentially slow it down, radical surgical options (as radical as you might be imagining) and lastly, products to help him once he does become painful if things worsen. Regardless, your veterinarian is your horses best friend, get him or her involved (if you haven’t already). I sure hope they can help you and your horse. I hope this helps.
