[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 392221, member: 1682"] You don't have a chute to milk the quarter out? If that was the case, then you could put mastitis injectable solution into the quarter (Its a small plastic white syringe that you should be able to get at you local feed store...it's typically used for dairy cows, so it might be in the dairy section. They make a dry and lactating cow solution, so make sure you buy the lactating cow one.) Short of that, there isn't much you can go. Avoid penicillin and use low-pain oxytetracycline instead. Give her shots for 3-5 days and that may keep the swelling down a bit and let the calf get on that quarter. Otherwise, the quarter will eventually harden (or burst and then harden). It won't spread to other quarters and it won't affect other cows. Cows that produce too much milk are more of a hassle than cows that produce to little. [/QUOTE]
