🐐 GOAT ABSCESS (گلٹی / پھوڑا): PREVENTION & CARE 🩺
An abscess is a painful, highly contagious bacterial infection common around the jaw, neck, or shoulder. If it bursts inside your pen, the bacteria can infect your entire herd!

# # # 🚫 DONT's
* ❌ **Never Squeeze a Hard Abscess:** It pushes the infection deeper and causes severe pain.

# # # DO's
* **Isolate the Goat:** Move it to a separate, clean pen immediately.
* **Wait for Maturity:** Wait until the swelling is soft and ready before draining.
