Three days sickness is a viral disease(rhabdo virus) .Frequently found the outbreak in the rainy season such of tropical zone as thailand which has ample insect disease vectors. in cattle 6-20 months old which high suscepability but low mortality rate. Symptoms begin with high fever approximately 104-106 degrees fahrenheit, boring , mucous saliva ,stretching muscle ..after a day without treatment articular inflamation will occur .She show a tiptoe stiff gait, muscle contraction- in severe case she can not standing to walking. Some of them can own a full recovery within 2-3 days which has made the name of this disease ; but many after the body temperature decrease to normal levels and she began returning to normal diet, but still can not be stand . . Bacterial secondary infections let complications of pneumonia symptoms, Muscle damage - downer cow syndrome ,digestive systems are not fully working - bloat are side effect of this disease
I prefer to handle this case by injected anti-inflam drug such dicofenac to reduce fever and relieve muscle ,antibiotic to control bacterial disease . if she lie outdoor make shade and help them turn side of recumbent frequently to prevent muscle ,bone and nerve damage.Lifting equipment is sent last.
