I've got a little heifer that is about 6 or so months old. I noticed that she looks like she struggles to defecate . Almost like her rectum isn't big enough. I'm not sure if it is relevant to my question but I've also noticed that she is having white discharge coming from her vagina. I gently palpated the inside of her vagina and ran into something. It felt hard and and was almost blocking her vagina. She let be palpate her and wasn't in any pain. My question is... what is it??
 
I am not a real vet but I play one on CT sometimes. the white discharge would indicate an infection in either the urinary or reproductive tract. the hard blockage sounds like an abscess. maybe two separate conditions or abscess causing the infection. the abscess may also be starting to break open and the white discharge could be what is inside the abscess. hope you find the problem and people with more knowledge than I will probably give you a much better answer. good luck
