[QUOTE="KathyLSmith, post: 1159823, member: 22765"] Hello all I'm new to this forum and I have a question. I have an younger cow that calved and the mother got an infection in her leg and abscesses. The vet came out and lanced it open and gave her Nuflor and we had to do daily flushing. After several weeks I notice the infection still not gone and the joint of her leg is swollen twice it's normal size. So after two months of treating this cow and I have removed her calf from her due to her weight loss I'm still nowhere with this infection. We continued with a regimen of Nuflor every other day for 10 days and it seemed to work but the fever keeps coming back. She is eating drinking and I give her gain twice a day. The vet states I should dispose of her but she's not giving up yet. I have had cows over my life time but never anything like this. Any advice please. [/QUOTE]
