General [General]

Which consists of an eruption, which comes out on different pars of the body and causes the animal to rub himself sometimes to such a degree that he gets no rest either night or day. At the beginning of the disease there is little or nothing to be seen, only that the animal rubs himself; but after a time numerous small pimples appear, out of which a watery fluid oozes, and on exposure to the air dries, and forms a scab on which the hair stands erect. If the diseases is allowed to go on unchecked, ulcers are frequently produced, which destroy the roots of the hair, and are very difficult to cure. The principal medicine to be used in this disease is Sulphur, of which six drops must be given every day for two or three weeks; afterwards the following medicines will be found useful- Arsenicum, Sepia and Rhus toxicodendron.

Dose. Six drops night and morning.

Sepia [Sep]

Sepia, if the parts affected are tender, and the animal shrinks when touched, or if there are white-looking blisters, filled with a watery fluid.
