Foot Rot: Prevention & Treatment:
Foot rot can become a problem in areas with uneven ground and moisture, especially in high-traffic areas.
Prevention:
In high-traffic areas, add gravel or sand and pack it down to improve drainage and provide a firm surface. If the gravel becomes exposed, add more sand to cover it and maintain a smoother surface.
Treatment:
Our recommended treatment for confirmed foot rot is 2 doses of Biomycin, given 3 days apart. This treatment is highly effective for foot rot.
If your animal is suddenly lame, swollen around the foot, or you suspect foot rot, give us a call so we can help determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
