[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 32511"] We had a cow step on a 20 penny nail, during the muddy season, several years ago. She is not lame, but, does lay more than the other cows and her fetlock area is larger than on the other leg. She had her injectable antibiotics but we had the hole flushed with a weak betadine solution using a tomcat catheter. After the first week I just used a slip tip syringe until it healed. I would (and was told to by the vet) worry about the tendons getting infected so it needs to heal from the inside out. Hope this is of some help. [/QUOTE]
