[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 12845"] Prolapse is the partial expulsion of the rectum, vagina or uterus. Pre-calving is usually vaginal. Some lines of Herefords are more prone to prolapse then others. The reason I didn't recommend stitching is because few people have the required skill, equipment or drugs to do it correctly. Best left to a skilled vet. Prolapse isn't a common problem, but when it does happen you feel awfully helpless. Donventional wisdom says that if the prolapse ocurs post calving that it won't happen again, if it is pre calving it will. Not necesarrily so. We had a cow prolapse after calving, the next year she prolapsed 3 months before calving. dun > without going into too much > detail, could you please explain > what prolapse is/means?
